This carte de visite photograph, taken by W. Vester in the late 19th century, depicts a young girl in a white communion dress. The girl stands in front of a plain background, her gaze directed towards the viewer. The image, typical of portraiture of the time, captures the innocence of youth and a solemn moment of religious significance. The photograph's small size and simple composition were characteristics of the popular carte de visite format, which allowed for easy distribution and collection.
