De nationale feestrok Possibly 1946

"De nationale feestrok" is a black and white photograph by K. Raucamp, likely taken in 1946, capturing a woman in a striking patchwork skirt. The skirt, a symbol of resourcefulness and creativity during a time of scarcity, is a striking juxtaposition to the woman's simple blouse, making it the centerpiece of the composition. This photograph, now in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the fashion and social dynamics of post-war Netherlands, highlighting the importance of both practical and aesthetic elements in clothing during a challenging period.
