Portret van een vrouw, zittend aan een tafel met een mand bloemen 1850 - 1890

This carte de visite, a popular photographic format in the 19th century, features a woman seated beside a table, examining a basket of flowers. Eugène Darnay, a photographer active between 1850 and 1890, captured the sitter in a contemplative pose, highlighting the intimacy of a personal portrait. The use of a simple, domestic setting further emphasizes the intimate nature of the image. The small size of the print, measuring only 86 mm by 53 mm, suggests this was likely intended for personal use or exchange.
