Portret van een onbekende jongen 1860 - 1880

"Portret van een onbekende jongen" is a portrait photograph by Anders Anderzon, a Swedish photographer active from 1860 to 1880. The photograph, likely a carte de visite, depicts a young man in formal attire, his serious expression and neatly groomed hair suggesting a portrait commissioned for personal or social use. The oval format of the photograph was a popular style during this era, framing the subject with a classic and elegant aesthetic. This intimate photograph, a common form of portraiture in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the life of an unknown individual during a period of great social and technological change.
