Portret van J. W. Binkes before 1877

This portrait of J.W. Binkes by Dirk J. Koning was created before 1877. The photograph depicts a man in a naval uniform. This is a cabinet card, a type of photographic print that was popular in the late 19th century. The small size and formal pose are typical of these portraits. The subject's facial expression is stern, reflecting the seriousness of his naval career. The image is likely from an album or collection of portraits related to the Royal Naval Institute in the Netherlands. Cabinet cards are still popular among collectors of historical photographs.
