Portret van een onbekende oude man aan een tafel 1877 - 1897

This 1877-1897 portrait of an unknown elderly man seated at a table is a cabinet card photograph by Dutch photographer Lodewijk Hendrikus Serré (1847-1897). The image, measuring 104mm by 64mm, captures the man in a formal pose, dressed in a suit with a white shirt. The use of a cabinet card format was popular in the late 19th century for portraits, showcasing the subject in a standardized and dignified manner. Serré's signature and "Utrecht PHOT." at the bottom indicate the location of his studio. The image provides a glimpse into the practice of portrait photography during this era. Serré's work is known for its focus on capturing detail and realistic representation.
