Portret van een man met handschoenen in de hand, leunend op een zuil 1860 - 1894

This 19th-century carte de visite, created by the Ghémar Frères photography studio, depicts a man in formal attire, likely a member of the upper class. The subject's confident posture and the inclusion of a column suggest a portrait intended to convey status and respectability. The image, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the popular photographic genre of the time, capturing a fleeting moment in the life of an unknown individual.
