Portret van twee meisjes op een buitenplaats c. 1860 - 1900

This cabinet card photograph, "Portret van twee meisjes op een buitenplaats" (Portrait of Two Girls in an Outdoor Setting), is a studio portrait taken by John George Kirby, a photographer active in the Netherlands between 1860-1900. The image, likely taken outdoors, features two young girls in traditional clothing of the period standing in front of a fence. Kirby's studio, "The Bridge, Wealdstone, Harrow," is noted on the photograph's border. The use of a simple background and a focus on the subjects, typical of early photography, creates a timeless portrait that captures the innocence of youth.
