Portret van Gerrit Wildeboer, hoogleraar godgeleerdheid in Groningen en rector magnificus van 1897 tot 1898 before 1898

This portrait of Gerrit Wildeboer, a professor of theology at Groningen and rector magnificus from 1897 to 1898, was likely created before 1898 by German photographer Friedrich Julius von Kolkow. The image is a small, formal portrait of Wildeboer, featuring him with a beard and a serious expression, and is a good example of the portraiture style common in the late 19th century. This work is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum and is a valuable historical document for those interested in the history of higher education and the visual culture of the Netherlands in the 19th century.
