Portret van een jonge man met vlinderstrik 1871 - 1893

Ed. Radermacher's "Portret van een jonge man met vlinderstrik" is a small-scale portrait of a young man, likely taken for personal use. Created in the late 19th century, it exemplifies the shift towards a more formal portrait style, featuring a sharp, almost stoic expression and a crisp, tailored suit. The young man's bow tie further adds to the formality of the image, placing him squarely within the conventions of the era. While the identity of the subject remains unknown, the photograph offers a glimpse into the visual style of portraiture in the late 19th century, providing valuable insight into the fashion and customs of that period.
