Portret van een vrouw, zittend aan een tafel 1870 - 1890

"Portret van een vrouw, zittend aan een tafel" is a portrait by S.J. Batchelder dating back to the late 19th century. The small, intimate portrait shows a woman sitting in a chair, posed against a simple background, which is characteristic of the photographic portraits of the time. This photograph has been incorporated into a larger composition, which is a common practice in Victorian-era portraiture, particularly for family albums and commemorative works. The detail of the larger work suggests a theatrical context, with theatrical masks and other related iconography framing the portrait, hinting at the subject's possible connection to the world of performance.
