Portret van Leo Tolstoj 1905 - 1906

"Portret van Leo Tolstoj" is a black and white photograph taken between 1905 and 1906 by an unknown artist. The portrait depicts Leo Tolstoy, the famed Russian novelist and philosopher, in a three-quarters pose, seated and looking directly at the viewer. Tolstoy’s white hair and beard are prominent, and he is wearing a dark suit, a white collared shirt, and eyeglasses. The small size of the photograph, measuring 82 mm in height and 45 mm in width, suggests it may have been a personal portrait or a memento from a special occasion.
