Portret van een oude man met een bontmuts op 1860 - 1880

Franz Wilhelm Deutmann's "Portret van een oude man met een bontmuts op" is a striking portrait of an elderly man, likely created between 1860 and 1880. This 19th-century carte de visite, a popular format for portraits at the time, captures the man's solemn gaze, his wrinkled face etched with a lifetime of experiences. Dressed in a dark coat and a fur hat, the subject embodies the stoicism and dignity of an older generation. The photograph, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people in 19th-century Dutch society.
