Portret van een jonge vrouw, staand bij een stoel 1857 - 1864

This small-scale portrait, "Portret van een jonge vrouw, staand bij een stoel," was created between 1857 and 1864 by Dutch photographer Louis Wegner. The photograph features a young woman standing in a room, her dress and pose reminiscent of the fashion and portraiture trends of the mid-19th century. The image is part of a collection housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, offering a glimpse into the private lives and aesthetics of the Dutch middle class in the mid-19th century. Wegner's work, like this portrait, is known for its sharp details and clear depiction of everyday life.
