Portret van een onbekende vrouw bij een fauteuil 1891 - 1900

This 19th-century carte de visite by E. Marchandise shows a portrait of an unknown woman. The photograph, likely taken in Strasbourg, France, captures the woman in a formal pose, her gaze directed towards the left. The delicate details of her attire, including a buttoned jacket and elaborate hairstyle, are rendered with a high level of clarity, highlighting the artistry of the photographer. The small size of the image, typical of carte de visite format, suggests its personal nature, possibly intended for private correspondence or as a memento.
