Gezicht op een huis in de Karazee before 1886

"Gezicht op een huis in de Karazee" (View of a house in the Kara Sea) is a photograph by H. Ekama taken before 1886. The image depicts a small, simple building with a pointed roof, likely a dwelling or outpost, situated in a desolate, snow-covered landscape. The stark black and white tones of the photograph, reminiscent of early photographic techniques, lend an air of mystery and isolation to the scene, highlighting the harsh conditions of the Kara Sea region. This image provides a glimpse into the exploration of the Arctic and the lives of those who ventured into these remote areas.
