"Portret van een onbekende man" is a black and white portrait photograph depicting an unidentified man, likely taken sometime between 1851 and 1883 by Johan Hendrik Hoffmeister, a Dutch photographer known for his portraits. The man sits in a chair, posed formally with his hands resting on a table, and wears a dark jacket over a patterned waistcoat and a bow tie. Hoffmeister's signature, "J. Hoffmeister, Photogr. te 's-Gravenhage," appears below the image. This photograph showcases the meticulous detail and stylistic conventions popular in portrait photography of the 19th century.
