Studioportret van een man staand aan tafel bij een achtergronddoek c. 1863 - 1866

This 19th-century photographic portrait by Willem Gerhardus Kuijer depicts a man standing beside a table draped in a fabric, likely a studio backdrop, with an ornate curtain in the background. The subject stands with his hand in his coat pocket, looking directly at the camera, and exudes a formal air characteristic of studio photography of the era. The photo, dated between 1863 and 1866, embodies the precision and meticulous attention to detail favored by portrait photographers of the time. It is a powerful testament to the art of photographic portraiture in the 19th century. The image is housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
