This photograph, “Portret van een onbekend lid van het bestuur van de Koninklijke Militaire Academie in Breda,” is a portrait of an unidentified member of the board of the Royal Military Academy in Breda. Created by Dutch photographer Franz Reissig before 1889, the photograph was likely taken for the 1889 edition of the “Cadetten-Almanak” as it appears on the right side of the image. This formal portrait, likely captured in a studio setting, depicts the sitter in full military uniform, highlighting his position and importance. Though the subject remains unknown, the image offers a glimpse into the history of the Dutch military academy and the visual culture of portraiture during the late 19th century.
