Portret van een onbekend kind c. 1880 - 1890

"Portret van een onbekend kind" is a black and white portrait photograph created by Dutch photographer J.B.A. van Loo sometime between 1880 and 1890. It shows a young child, likely a boy, dressed in a lavish costume, holding a small bouquet of flowers. The child's serious expression and formal attire suggest that this may be a portrait intended for a family album or a keepsake. The image captures the charm and innocence of childhood, framed within the technical constraints and aesthetic conventions of 19th-century photography.
