Portret van een man in kostuum met degen, aangeduid als C.E. van Marle 1872 - 1900

This carte-de-visite photograph, taken between 1872 and 1900, depicts a man identified as C.E. van Marle dressed in a elaborate costume. The subject is standing in front of an outdoor backdrop, possibly a garden, and is wearing a plumed hat, a tunic decorated with a large, stylized bird, and tall boots. The photograph, created by Dutch photographer Hendrik Jonker, is a fine example of the popularity of studio portraits in the late 19th century. The image, housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases the skill of the photographer in capturing detail and highlighting the unique fashion of the period.
