This portrait of an unidentified woman, created between 1889 and 1910 by Dutch photographer Josephus Hendrikus Petrus Coppens, showcases his mastery of the photographic art. The image, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a woman of mature age, her face etched with the lines of a life lived. Her simple dress and worn features convey a sense of everyday realism, reflecting Coppens' penchant for capturing the lives of ordinary people. The small size of the photograph, measuring only 105 mm by 65 mm, suggests it was likely a personal memento, further emphasizing the intimate nature of the portrait.
