"Portret van een meisje, staand bij een stoel en een speelgoed paard" is a portrait photograph by Dutch photographer A. Böeseken, capturing a young girl seated on a chair with a toy horse by her feet. Taken sometime between 1858 and 1890, this small, intimate portrait is characteristic of the Victorian era's fascination with capturing childhood innocence. Böeseken, active from 1834 to 1919, is known for his sensitive portrayal of children in everyday settings. This photo serves as a glimpse into the life of a young Dutch girl in the mid-19th century, revealing a mix of playful charm and a hint of formality. The image, measuring only 82 mm in height and 50 mm in width, exemplifies the small scale of early photography, adding to its intimate and personal feel.
