Portret van een onbekende vrouw bij een stoel 1855 - 1885

"Portret van een onbekende vrouw bij een stoel" is a carte de visite photograph by the photographer Dupuis, likely taken between 1855 and 1885. The portrait depicts an unidentified woman standing in a studio setting, dressed in a formal gown with a white lace collar and a dark sash. Her pose is slightly stiff, a common style in 19th-century portraiture, and her gaze is directed towards the viewer. The image is a snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the fashion and social norms of the time. The photograph's small size and the presence of the photographer's name on the mount suggest that this portrait was likely intended for personal use or as a memento.
