Portret van Aaltje Koster 1889 - 1925

"Portret van Aaltje Koster" is a portrait photograph taken by Josephus Hendrikus Petrus Coppens between 1889 and 1925. The photograph captures Aaltje Koster, a woman from Purmerend, Netherlands, in a formal pose, wearing a collared blouse with a lace trim and a dark dress with a white collar. The image is a classic example of a portrait photograph from the late 19th century and early 20th century. The composition is simple and focused on the sitter, with a plain background and subtle lighting that accentuates her features. The photograph, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people during this period.
