Portret van een man met een hoge hoed staand bij een piëdestal 1874

This carte de visite, a small photograph measuring 92 mm by 54 mm, was created by Jules Géruzet in 1874. The photograph depicts a man in a top hat and formal attire, standing casually with his hand on his hip and a hat in his hand. The subject appears to be standing against a backdrop, perhaps a draped curtain or a plain wall. This work is a fine example of photographic portraiture from the 19th century. Géruzet's artistry is evident in his capturing of detail and the subject's natural pose. The image provides a glimpse into the clothing and fashion of the era.
