Portret van een vrouw 1870 - 1910

This cabinet card photograph, "Portret van een vrouw," created by Chic Photo Co. between 1870 and 1910, depicts a woman in a dark dress with a white collar. Her gaze is directed toward the viewer, and her facial expression is reserved. The image is framed by an ornate oval, and the photographer's name is inscribed in the lower right corner. This portrait, likely commissioned by the woman herself, offers a glimpse into the lives of individuals during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The small size of the card, 84 mm in height and 51 mm in width, suggests its intended use as a personal memento or gift. Cabinet cards, a popular format of the time, were often collected in albums.
