Portret van een onbekende man en een onbekende vrouw aan tafel 1864 - 1878

This portrait, created between 1864 and 1878 by Herman Bückmann, depicts an unknown man and woman seated at a table. The photograph, a small work measuring only 101mm x 62mm, captures a moment of intimacy between the sitters. The man, dressed in a dark suit, leans forward towards the table, while the woman, adorned in a patterned dress and a cap, gazes at the viewer. The composition and the setting, likely a home or studio interior, suggest a formal or commemorative purpose, possibly a wedding or engagement portrait. Bückmann, a prolific photographer, specialized in portraiture, and this work exemplifies his keen ability to capture the essence of his subjects.
