Mannen bij een boothuis in Rusland 1903 - 1904

This photograph, *Mannen bij een boothuis in Rusland*, taken by Joseph Cheetham between 1903-1904, captures a serene moment in Russia. The image showcases a wooden boathouse on the edge of a waterway, with two men, one standing by the house and one in a small boat. The composition highlights the simplicity of rural life and the peaceful presence of water, a characteristic of Cheetham's photographic style. Currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, the photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of a bygone era in Russia.
