Portret van een meisje met pop 1857 - 1898

This 19th-century carte de visite by P. Siewers & Zoon captures a young girl holding a doll. The photograph's intimate scale and soft focus evoke a sense of childhood innocence. The girl's serious expression and the presence of the doll suggest a reflection on the passage of time and the transition to adulthood. The image is a testament to the artistry of early photography in capturing the fleeting moments of life.
