Black and white vintage photograph of a stern-faced elderly man from 1899 wearing headphones over his glasses and a formal suit.

A bizarrely Dutch-looking fictional inventor from 1899 named Höör Benjamin Lurar, portrayed in an extremely old, wrinkled, damaged black-and-white photograph. He has an exaggerated old-fashioned Dutch appearance, formal 1890s clothing, a serious but absurd expression, and the world’s first headphones ridiculously perched on his nose instead of his ears. Authentic early photographic texture, faded silver gelatin, scratches, creases, stains, handwritten ink underneath reading “Höör Benjamin Lurar — 1899”. Extremely Dutch, absurd historical photograph, deadpan humor, vintage archival portrait. Mehr sehen
