Portret van een vrouw, staand bij een stoel 1880 - 1900

This 19th-century tintype portrait by Archibald Burns captures a woman standing beside a chair, likely in her own home. The composition is simple yet elegant. The sitter's attire, her elaborate hairdo, and her confident posture indicate her social status. The portrait is a small but significant snapshot of a woman's life during the Victorian era, revealing her style and perhaps hinting at her personality. Tintypes, popular in the mid-19th century, were a less expensive alternative to daguerreotypes and were often used for personal portraits.
