Kinderen op een kade op Marken before 1915

This anonymous photograph, "Kinderen op een kade op Marken," captures a moment in time on the island of Marken in the Netherlands. Taken sometime before 1915, the image shows four children, likely siblings, standing on a wooden dock beside a canal. The young boy, wearing a straw hat and traditional Dutch clothing, holds a long stick and appears to be fishing. The three girls, also dressed in traditional attire, watch with interest. This photograph is a snapshot of everyday life in a picturesque Dutch village and provides a glimpse into the lives of children in this community before the advent of modern technology.
