Portret van een onbekende man, vrouw en kind 1863 - 1885

This carte de visite, a popular photographic format in the 19th century, captures a family portrait by W. Croydon, a photographer based in Westbourne Park. The image shows a man, a woman, and a child, likely a family unit, posed formally in a studio setting. The man stands tall, while the woman and child sit, creating a balanced composition. The photograph is a testament to the increasing popularity of portraiture during this era, as families sought to document their lives and relationships. The image's small dimensions, 105 mm by 63 mm, further indicate its status as a carte de visite, intended for personal collection or exchange.
