This carte de visite portrait, created by Constantin et Cie between 1855 and 1885, depicts an unknown man seated on a chair. The man is formally dressed in a suit and tie, and he looks directly at the viewer. The photograph is a classic example of the carte de visite genre, which was popular in the mid-19th century, and is notable for its detailed and realistic depiction of the sitter. The small size of the photograph suggests that it was likely intended for personal use, perhaps as a memento or a gift.
