Portret van een hond 1870 - 1890

"Portret van een hond," a black and white photograph by Sophus Williams, captures a dog in profile, its head slightly tilted as if gazing off into the distance. The dog is likely a Labrador Retriever, its fur appearing soft and white, highlighted against the dark background. The image, created sometime between 1870 and 1890, showcases Williams' skill in capturing the animal's gentle expression, highlighting the bond between humans and their canine companions. The photograph, measuring only 84 mm by 52 mm, is a testament to the power of small-scale imagery to convey emotion and detail.
