Pedro Matrona, aanvoerder van het voetbalelftal van Curaçao, in Volendamse klederdracht Possibly 1958

This black and white photograph, taken by Dutch photographer Aart Klein in possibly 1958, depicts Pedro Matrona, the captain of the Curaçao national football team, wearing traditional Volendam clothing. The humorous image captures Matrona laughing broadly, wearing a striped skirt and traditional headdress, providing a glimpse into the playful interactions of culture and sport. The photograph is a testament to Klein's talent for capturing candid moments and the social commentary that comes with it, and serves as a unique snapshot of 1950s Dutch culture.
