Der Eigentümer ist bekannt. Ob es heute ausgestellt ist, sagt das Museum nicht, und Raten haben wir nicht gelernt.
The graphic artist Elenbaas was also at home in photography. In the 1930s he worked as a socially engaged photographer and, moreover, took surrealistic photographs. He practiced photography, together with his wife Esther, to a ripe old age, but then more as a private pastime than as an artistic expression. This image of two young people before a misted up window creates an exciting interplay of light and dark, atmosphere and space.
