Portret van Edward Bickersteth c. 1865 - 1875

This is a portrait of Edward Bickersteth, created by an anonymous artist sometime between 1865 and 1875. The portrait depicts Bickersteth seated in a chair, dressed in clerical garb. He is holding a book in his left hand, and looking directly at the viewer with a serious expression. The image is likely a photograph, as it displays a sharp focus and realism, common in the photographic techniques of the 19th century. This portrait, likely intended as a frontispiece for a book about Bickersteth, provides a glimpse into the life of a prominent figure of the Victorian era.
