Water met een brug in het Amsterdamse Vondelpark c. 1905 - 1907

"Water met een brug in het Amsterdamse Vondelpark" (Water with a bridge in Amsterdam's Vondelpark), created between 1905 and 1907, is a black and white photograph by Dutch photographer Folkert Idzes de Jong (1877-1929). The photograph depicts a serene scene of a bridge spanning a calm body of water in the Vondelpark, a popular public park in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The composition is symmetrical, with the bridge positioned centrally and flanked by bare trees on both sides. The reflection of the trees and the bridge in the water adds to the tranquility of the scene. De Jong’s work is characterized by its realistic depiction of nature, making this photograph a poignant example of the beauty of Amsterdam's parks during the early 20th century.
