This black and white photograph, "Straatbeeld in Rotterdam met op de achtergrond het Witte Huis" (Street Scene in Rotterdam with the White House in the Background), was taken by Dutch photographer Folkert Idzes de Jong between 1905 and 1907. The image captures a lively street scene in Rotterdam, showing a horse-drawn cart, cyclists, and pedestrians. The Witte Huis, a prominent building in the city, is seen in the background, making the photograph a valuable glimpse into the city's urban landscape at the turn of the 20th century. The photograph's small size, 81 mm by 110 mm, suggests it may have been intended as a personal snapshot or a postcard.
