Portret van Henri Ernie als kind 1850 - 1900

This portrait photograph, "Portret van Henri Ernie als kind," captures the young Henri Ernie holding a rifle. Created between 1850 and 1900 by Marius Rouffiac, the image showcases the early photographic techniques of the period. The small size of the photograph, 84 mm in height and 50 mm in width, suggests it might be a cabinet card format, popular for personal portraits during this era. The image's subject matter, a child with a firearm, is indicative of the burgeoning interest in portraiture and the documentation of everyday life in the 19th century.
