Portret van een vrouw met zwarte kanten muts 1875 - 1899

This is a carte de visite portrait, a popular form of photography in the 19th century. Created by Cornand et Cie, the image features a woman in a black lace cap, typical of the fashion of the time. The oval frame and small size of the photograph are characteristic of the carte de visite format, which was often used to share portraits with friends and family. The delicate details of the lace and the woman's gentle expression add to the sentimental nature of this photograph. The image is a valuable glimpse into the fashion and social customs of the late 19th century.
