Portret van een vrouw in een gestreepte jurk 1860 - 1870

This 19th-century portrait by V. Vagneur, created between 1860 and 1870, depicts a woman in a striped dress. The image is a carte de visite, a popular format for photographic portraits during that period, and is characterized by its small size. The woman is posed formally, her hand resting on a piece of furniture, and the photograph captures her in a moment of quiet contemplation. This work is an example of the popular genre of portrait photography, which emerged in the 19th century and continues to this day.
