Drie kinderen in een tuin before 1895

"Drie kinderen in een tuin," or "Three Children in a Garden", is a photograph by Emma Justine Farnsworth, a prolific photographer born in 1860 and active until her death in 1952. The image depicts three children gathered around a small fire, their faces obscured by their hats and the billowing smoke. The children are likely engaged in a playful game, with the photograph capturing a moment of childhood innocence and camaraderie. Though the exact date is unknown, the photograph is believed to have been taken before 1895. The small size of the photograph, measuring 169mm x 118mm, suggests it was likely a personal snapshot, highlighting the intimate nature of Farnsworth's work. This photograph, like many of Farnsworth's other works, showcases the natural beauty of children and their world.
