Portret van een man c. 1860 - 1880

"Portret van een man" (Portrait of a Man) is a black and white photograph created by Dutch artist Albert Greiner sometime between 1860 and 1880. The image depicts a man, likely a private citizen, in a seated pose, his arm resting on a surface in a formal manner. This photograph is representative of the portraiture genre popular in the mid-19th century, a time when photography was becoming a more widely accessible form of art. The image, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a small yet intimate portrait capturing a moment in time and offering a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people during this period.
