The portraitist is framed in half figure, seated supporting his right hand on a padded armchair. Photo pasted on original cardboard backing.

K. Beyer (1818-1877) - one of the greatest individuals in the history of Polish photography. He was a collector, amateur scientist and patriotic activist in the period 1861-1863, which he paid with exile to Siberia, where of course he also took photographs. He opened his first establishment in 1844, and in 1857 moved to premises at 389 Krakowskie Przedmieście St., where he operated until around 1863. The main specialty of the establishment was portrait photography, especially appointment photography.
