Remarks
From conservation report: Simon Halfweeg lived from 02-02-1814 until 19-06-1885. During 1853 and 1854 he was commander of the steam/sailing ship “BORDEAUX” of shipping company Van Hoey Smit; the company’s flag is visible on the captain’s hat. The “BORDEAUX” maintained a freight service in France and Portugal (wine and salt respectively). Subsequently, the daguerreotype might be made in one of those countries.
