Matrozen aan boord van hun schip met een hond 1940 - 1943

This black and white photograph, created between 1940 and 1943 by an anonymous artist, depicts three men on the deck of a ship. One of the men is kneeling and petting a small dog, while the other two stand in the background. The photograph, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, captures a moment of everyday life during wartime and offers a glimpse into the lives of sailors and their companions. The small size of the photograph, measuring 60 mm in height and 85 mm in width, hints at its intimate and personal nature, likely originating from a private photo album.
