"Portret van een man met een sigaar in de hand, zittend" is a daguerreotype portrait by Maurits Verveer, a Dutch photographer known for his portraits and landscapes. This photograph captures a man in a seated pose, holding a cigar in his hand. His beard and mustache are prominent, and he appears to be dressed in formal attire. The oval frame and the crisp detail of the photograph are characteristic of 19th-century portraiture. This intimate portrait, now in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the life of an ordinary individual in the mid-19th century.
