Guafu
1801
Guafu is a 1801 by Unknown, a Romanticism work.
This photo shows a man in a dark suit with a white shirt and dark bow tie. His face is sharp and clear against the soft blur of the background. He looks right at the camera with a calm stare. No one knows who took this picture. It was made in 1801, long before most people had cameras. The photo feels old and fragile, like a glass plate might shatter if you touch it. It lives at the Museum of Ethnography.
