About this work

Photo album with 48 pages containing a total of 157 photos. The album contains 12 cabinet photos and 144 cartes-de-visite in passe-partouts framed with gold lines, and one loose miniature portrait. Each page contains either a passe-partout for a cabinet photo or four passe-partouts for cartes-de-visite. Depicted are portraits of unknown men, women, and children, presumably from a family. On two cartes-de-visite, a name is written on the verso, presumably of the person depicted. The photos were made by various Dutch photographers, including Elkan Sanders Jr, Benjamin Sanders, Thomas Martin Staas, and W.B. Bekkering. The photographer of 9 photos is anonymous.
