"Portret van een vrouw, aangeduid als Koning" (Portrait of a Woman, designated as King) is a photograph by Dutch photographer Josephus Hendrikus Petrus Coppens, dating from 1889-1925. The image depicts a woman in a traditional Dutch dress, with her head covered, looking directly at the viewer. The photograph is in the style of a portrait and was likely taken for personal use, as it was a common practice for people to have their portraits taken in the late 19th and early 20th century. It's a poignant look at the lives of ordinary people in the Netherlands at that time, showcasing Coppens' mastery of capturing the human form. The artwork currently resides at the Rijksmuseum.
