Portret van een jonge vrouw 1861 - 1874

"Portret van een jonge vrouw" (Portrait of a Young Woman), a photograph created between 1861 and 1874 by Albert Greiner, is a portrait of an unidentified young woman captured in a simple yet intimate style. The photograph, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, presents the subject in a direct gaze, her hair neatly styled and her attire suggestive of the fashion of the time. Greiner's work, known for its focus on everyday life and individuals, provides a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people during the 19th century. The photograph, though small in dimension (83 mm x 50 mm), offers a compelling portrait of a young woman, her identity shrouded in time but her presence captured in a moment of quiet contemplation.
