"Portret van een vrouw" is a carte de visite photograph of a woman, created by Dutch photographer Godfried de Jong sometime between 1850 and 1880. The photograph, measuring only 84 mm by 52 mm, depicts the woman in a formal pose, her gaze directed at the viewer. This type of photograph, popular in the mid-19th century, was a relatively inexpensive way for people to share portraits with friends and family. The image provides a glimpse into the fashion and social customs of the time, with the woman's attire and hairstyle reflecting the trends of the era.
