Portret van een staande man met hoed in de hand c. 1860 - 1894

This is a cabinet card photograph by the Ghémar Frères, likely taken between 1860 and 1894. The photograph depicts a man in a coat, holding a top hat in his hand. The image is a classic example of a portrait photograph, a genre popular in the 19th century, and reflects the trends of the time, such as the popularity of formal wear and the use of the cabinet card format. The photograph, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a small, intimate portrait capturing a moment in time and a glimpse into the past.
