"Portret van een staande jongeman met wandelstok bij sokkel met daarop een hoge hoed" (Portrait of a Standing Young Man with a Walking Stick near a Plinth with a Top Hat on it) is a carte de visite photograph created by Leandro y Dublan between 1855 and 1870. The photograph captures a young man standing confidently, his hand resting on a pedestal holding a top hat. This format was popular in the mid-19th century, used for personal portraits and as a way for individuals to share their image with others. The image's small size, measuring just 101 mm high and 63 mm wide, is a hallmark of this style. The subject's attire and pose suggest he is a member of the upper class, emphasizing the growing importance of photography in capturing individual identity during this period.
