"Portret van een zittende jongen" is a 19th-century carte de visite photograph created by A. Delamare & A. Raguet. The photograph depicts a young boy in a formal pose, seated on a chair with his arm resting on the back. This type of portrait was popular in the mid-19th century as a way to capture and preserve the likeness of individuals. The small size of the photograph and the formal pose are characteristic of the carte de visite format, which was widely used for personal portraits and as a social calling card.
