Portret van een jonge vrouw, zittend met een boek 1880 - 1927

"Portret van een jonge vrouw, zittend met een boek" (Portrait of a young woman, sitting with a book) is a black and white photograph taken between 1880 and 1927 by Dutch photographer Franciscus G. Lukera (1853-1927). The portrait features a young woman in a white dress sitting on a chair, holding a book in her lap. This small-format portrait exemplifies the photographic portraiture popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is a simple, yet elegant image that captures the sitter's likeness and conveys a sense of quiet contemplation. The image, likely taken for a personal album, showcases the artistry of Franciscus G. Lukera's photographic style, capturing the detail in the sitter's dress and the depth of the background.
