Portret van een onbekende vrouw 1889 - 1925

This portrait of an unknown woman was created by Josephus Hendrikus Petrus Coppens, a Dutch photographer active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The photograph, likely taken in his studio in Purmerend, showcases Coppens's expertise in portraiture, capturing the subject's features with clarity and detail. The woman's dignified expression and simple attire suggest a formal setting for the portrait, possibly a studio portrait commissioned by the sitter or her family. This photograph, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the lives and styles of ordinary people during the late 19th century.
