Portret van een onbekende vrouw die vermoedelijk communie doet c. 1892 - 1906

This black and white portrait photograph by Machiel Hendricus Laddé, taken between 1892 and 1906, captures an unknown woman in a formal pose, likely receiving communion. The woman is dressed in a dark dress with lace detailing, and wears a veil and a necklace of pearls. Her serious expression and the religious imagery in the background, including the chair, book, and rosary beads, suggest a moment of solemnity and spiritual contemplation. The photograph, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Laddé's skills as a photographer specializing in portraiture.
