Portret van een staande man bij een stoel 1855 - 1875

This 19th-century photographic portrait, created by the London School of Photography, depicts a man standing with his hand resting on the back of a chair. The subject is dressed in formal attire, likely reflecting the era's fashion trends. The background features a painted backdrop with a glimpse of foliage and a draped curtain. This work demonstrates the development of photographic techniques and the rise of portraiture as a popular art form during the 19th century. The small dimensions of the print suggest it was likely intended as a personal memento or keepsake for the subject.
