Portret van een onbekende baby, zittend in een fauteuil 1889 - 1925

This black and white photograph, titled "Portret van een onbekende baby, zittend in een fauteuil," was taken by Josephus Hendrikus Petrus Coppens between 1889 and 1925. The image captures a young baby, seated in a plush armchair, wearing a lacy white dress. The baby's wide, curious eyes and slightly pouty expression create a sense of innocence and vulnerability, making this portrait a classic example of the Victorian era's fascination with childhood. The photograph is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into the photographic practices of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
