Willem Gerhardus Kuijer's "Portret van een onbekende jonge vrouw bij meubels" is a striking example of a 19th-century carte-de-visite, a popular format for portrait photography during the era. The photograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures an unidentified young woman in a formal pose, standing beside a table and a chair. Her attire, a dark dress adorned with delicate embellishments, speaks to the fashion trends of the time. The image's soft focus and slight vignetting further enhance its historical significance and artistic charm.
