This is a portrait of Joseph Foxley, a scholar of St. John's College, Cambridge. The portrait is likely a carte de visite, a small photograph popular in the 19th century, and was likely taken before 1891. Foxley is shown in a formal pose, wearing a dark suit and a white shirt. His white beard is prominent, and he looks directly at the viewer. The photograph is a testament to the photographic techniques and portraiture practices of the period, capturing the subject in a concise and traditional manner.
