Portret van koning Eduard VII van het Verenigd Koninkrijk 1905 - 1906

This small, anonymous portrait of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom, created between 1905 and 1906, is a poignant reminder of the monarch's reign and the early development of photographic portraiture. The image captures the King in a formal pose, his face adorned with a thick beard and mustache. The high-contrast black and white photograph, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, exhibits a classic and traditional style, highlighting the king’s regality and the formal nature of portraiture during this era.
