This small-format portrait, likely a cabinet card, captures a young baby seated in a wicker chair. The image, created by the photography studio L. Coltof & Co. between 1906 and 1911, is a quintessential example of early 20th-century portraiture. The baby's seated pose and serious expression were common conventions of the time, highlighting innocence and vulnerability. This intimate image, measuring just 84mm by 51mm, was likely cherished by the family as a memento of childhood. The delicate floral frame adds a decorative touch, typical of the era's photographic aesthetics. The inscription "Foto-A" suggests the image was part of a larger photographic collection, further emphasizing its personal significance.
