Studioportret van een jonge vrouw in een hooggesloten jurk c. 1863 - 1866

This portrait, created by German photographer Max Büttinghausen between 1863 and 1866, captures a young woman in a high-necked dress. The image is framed in an oval, a popular format for studio portraits during this period. The photograph showcases the detail of the woman's clothing, particularly the delicate lace trim, a common element of fashion in the mid-19th century. Büttinghausen was known for his skillful use of light and shadow, evident in the soft, natural lighting of the image. The photograph, now in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the lives of ordinary individuals during the era.
