Portret van een onbekende man before 1900

This photo, titled *Portret van een onbekende man*, is a portrait of an unidentified man, taken by Robert Demachy, a prominent French photographer, before 1900. The photograph exhibits a dark, almost shadowy aesthetic characteristic of Demachy's signature style, which is known as pictorialism. This approach combined photographic techniques with painterly aesthetics. This particular photograph is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
