"Drieling Stans, Paul en Peronne Arntzenius" is a black and white photograph by Dutch artist Willem Witsen, dating from circa 1860 to 1915. The photograph depicts three young individuals, likely siblings, named Stans, Paul, and Peronne Arntzenius, positioned against a blurred background of foliage. The individuals appear to be in a formal setting, with the young man in a suit and tie, while his two sisters are dressed in white, possibly lace-trimmed dresses. The photograph captures the essence of a family portrait, showcasing the natural warmth and closeness of the siblings. This photograph, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, is an example of Witsen's early photographic work, showcasing his talent for capturing candid moments and creating evocative portraits.
