"Portret van een onbekende man, zittend aan een tafel," is a carte de visite portrait photograph by Albert Greiner, a Dutch photographer active in the mid-19th century. The image depicts a seated man, likely a member of the upper class, dressed in formal attire. This photograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Greiner's skill in capturing the likeness of his subjects, though the man's identity remains unknown. The small size of the image, typical of carte de visite portraits, underscores the intimate nature of this genre, popular during the Victorian era.
