Portret van een onbekende vrouw in een donkere jurk en met een witte sluier before 1906

This is a portrait photograph of an unknown woman in a dark dress and a white veil, taken by Machiel Hendricus Laddé, a Dutch photographer, before 1906. The woman is posed standing next to an ornately carved chair, and the composition of the photograph suggests an indoor setting. The photograph is a beautiful example of Laddé's work, which is known for its elegant and refined style. This type of formal portrait was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and this specific photograph is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
