Portret van André Salmon c. 1851 - 1883

Johan Hendrik Hoffmeister's "Portret van André Salmon" is a black and white portrait of André Salmon, likely a prominent figure of the time. Executed in the style of a traditional portrait, it depicts the subject in a seated pose, wearing a formal suit with a crisp white shirt and a patterned bowtie. The careful rendering of details, such as Salmon's facial features and the texture of his clothing, showcases Hoffmeister's skill as a portraitist. Created between 1851 and 1883, the portrait reflects the conventions of 19th-century portraiture, capturing the sitter's likeness with precision and detail.
