Blad 39 uit Stamboek van de leerlingen der Koloniale School voor Meisjes en Vrouwen te 's-Gravenhage deel II (1930-1949) Possibly 1932 - 1934

This page, "Blad 39 uit Stamboek van de leerlingen der Koloniale School voor Meisjes en Vrouwen te 's-Gravenhage deel II (1930-1949)" was compiled in The Hague. Looking at this work, I wonder, what was it like to put this page together? Someone gathered this information from the students. They carefully assembled these entries in a ledger, collecting all the official facts. And then they pasted in these small, intimate photographs. I look at the fourth entry: "Gelle Stuivenberg" the handwriting is in cursive and seems rushed. There's an image of the student underneath an archway and notes in the far right column. How different the official writing of the registrar looks compared to the student's handwriting. A record of life, made from a collection of gestures.
