Portret van een vrouw met parasol in de hand, zittend aan een tafel 1855 - 1870

This black and white portrait, created between 1855 and 1870, depicts a woman in a seated pose. The woman, identified by the artist Johannes Hermanus van der Heijden, is dressed in a white blouse with intricate embroidery, paired with a dark striped skirt. She is holding a parasol in her hand, possibly emphasizing a sense of elegance or leisure. The image, likely a carte-de-visite format, is characterized by its small dimensions (82 mm x 50 mm) and the use of a neutral background, typical of portrait photography during the 19th century.
