Taken between 1857-1865, this carte de visite showcases his youthful features with remarkable clarity. Dressed in fashionable attire for children of that era, Guillaume is adorned with an exquisite belt that accentuates his tiny waist. A dainty bowtie adorns his collar, adding a touch of sophistication to his ensemble. His eyes sparkle with curiosity as he gazes into the camera lens, exuding a sense of artistic potential even at such a tender age. The portrait not only highlights Guillaume's future artistic prowess but also offers insight into the fashion trends prevalent during that time period.
