Portret van een onbekend meisje uit de familie Marmelstein c. 1873

This portrait photograph, created by the studio Baijer & Van Alphen around 1873, depicts an unidentified young girl from the Marmelstein family. The girl is seated in a chair, wearing a plaid dress, and her expression is calm and composed. The photograph's small size, measuring 106 mm in height and 61 mm in width, suggests that it may have been a carte de visite, a popular format for portrait photography in the 19th century. This portrait provides a glimpse into the lives of a Dutch family during this era and showcases the artistry of the photographers Baijer & Van Alphen.
