"Sportactivieteiten op een grasveld" is a stereoscopic photograph by Dutch artist Geldolph Adriaan Kessler, showcasing a group of individuals engaging in sports on a grassy field, likely a cricket match. Captured around the turn of the 20th century, the photograph provides a glimpse into leisure activities of the time. The sepia-toned image, with its distinct split-view format, invites the viewer to experience a three-dimensional perspective of the scene, enhancing the sense of depth and realism. This piece, housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a valuable record of sporting activities and social gatherings in early 20th century Netherlands.
