Portret van een staande jongen met viool en strijkstok 1892 - 1906

Johannes Baer’s “Portret van een staande jongen met viool en strijkstok” (1892 - 1906), is a portrait photograph depicting a young boy standing in a formal pose with a violin and bow. The boy's clothing and the inclusion of a violin suggest he is a student of music. The oval frame and the sepia tones of the photograph are characteristic of late 19th-century portraiture. This image, housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a charming snapshot of a moment in time.
