Portret van een jongen, staand bij een stoel en een trommel 1858 - 1890

This black and white portrait, created by Dutch photographer A. Böeseken between 1858 and 1890, depicts a young boy standing in a studio setting. The boy, wearing a jacket, trousers, and boots, holds a stick in his hand, with a chair and a drum visible behind him. This portrait, a small oval print measuring 87mm by 53mm, showcases the artistry of early photography and offers a glimpse into the lives of children during the 19th century. The portrait exemplifies the "carte de visite" format, popular for capturing and sharing personal moments in the Victorian era.
