This carte de visite, created by Woodbury & Page between 1876 and 1879, is a portrait of an unidentified man, possibly named Veendra. The photograph is a classic example of 19th-century portraiture, capturing the subject in a formal pose against a plain backdrop. The image's small size and ornate frame are characteristic of the carte de visite format, which was popular for sharing personal portraits during this era. The Rijksmuseum, where this work is housed, preserves this photograph as a historical document, offering insight into the visual culture of the late 19th century.
