Portret van Louis Meijer 1838 - 1863

This portrait of Louis Meijer, painted by Frederik Hendrik Weissenbruch between 1838 and 1863, is a striking example of 19th-century realism. Meijer is depicted in a seated position, his gaze directed towards the viewer, and dressed in a dark coat with a fur collar. The artwork is a fine example of Weissenbruch's skill as a portrait artist, capturing the sitter's likeness and personality in a lifelike manner. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, the painting is a testament to the enduring legacy of both the artist and the sitter.
