This carte de visite photograph, likely dating from 1867-1869, depicts a seated man identified as O.A. Uhlenbeck. The portrait, captured by the photographic duo Wegner & Mottu, shows the subject in a three-quarter profile, showcasing his formal attire and prominent beard. The image's intimate scale and simple composition were characteristic of the carte de visite format, a popular photographic style of the mid-19th century. The Rijksmuseum houses this small but significant piece of photographic history.
