Portret van een jonge man in kostuum, aangeduid als W.H.A. Elink Schuurman 1860 - 1905

This 19th-century carte de visite portrait, created by Dutch photographer Jan Goedeljee between 1860 and 1905, depicts a young man in a historical costume. The subject, identified as W.H.A. Elink Schuurman, is posed formally with a confident demeanor, wearing a richly embroidered doublet and breeches with a cape, and a tall hat. The image, framed by a double oval border, was likely part of a collection of small photographic portraits popular in the mid-19th century. The portrait's small size and intimate style reflect the evolving role of photography in capturing personal identity during this period.
