This anonymous carte-de-visite portrait from 1860-1874 captures Louis Suson Pedro Meyboom in a formal pose. The subject, dressed in a dark robe and seated on a chair, holds a book in his lap, suggesting a scholarly or professional background. Carte-de-visites, small photographic portraits, were popular in the mid-19th century and often served as calling cards or mementos. This particular portrait, measuring just 84 mm in height and 51 mm in width, provides a glimpse into the life of a prominent individual from a bygone era.
