Portret van een jonge man in kostuum, aangeduid als S.J. Enthoven 1860 - 1905

This 19th-century carte-de-visite portrait by Dutch photographer Jan Goedeljee captures S.J. Enthoven in a theatrical costume. The photograph, likely taken between 1860 and 1905, showcases Enthoven in an elaborate outfit, complete with a feathered hat and a richly-decorated doublet, suggestive of a period costume. The small size of the photograph, measuring only 83 mm by 52 mm, is typical of the carte-de-visite format, which was popular in the mid-19th century for capturing portraits and sharing them with friends and family. This image provides a glimpse into the life of an individual in the late 19th century and is a testament to the enduring power of photography as a historical documentation tool.
