Ondergelopen straat met bomen, gezien vanuit een bootje 1910 - 1911

"Ondergelopen straat met bomen, gezien vanuit een bootje" (Flooded Street with Trees, Seen from a Boat) is a photograph by G. Dangereux, taken between 1910 and 1911. The photograph depicts a flooded street lined with trees, seen from the perspective of someone in a small boat. The water reflects the light, creating a calming, almost ethereal atmosphere, while the trees, partially submerged, add a sense of mystery and quiet solitude. The photograph captures the aftermath of a flood, a moment of stillness amidst chaos, and the beauty of nature reclaiming the urban landscape. The small format of the image, measuring 52mm by 59mm, further enhances the intimate and contemplative feel of the composition.
