This is a page from Carolina (Loentje) Frederika Onnen's photo album, probably put together in 1928, full of travel memories to Venice, the Riviera, Germany, and even day trips to the beach. I love the family pictures of that era! They give us a look into their lives and travels. I can almost imagine Loentje, carefully placing each photo, thinking about the stories behind them. Look at how she arranged these images; it's like a collage, a collection of moments frozen in time. What was she thinking when she chose to include this photograph? Was it the light, the composition, or the memory it held? These are some of the questions I ask myself when I am organizing my photos into albums. Loentje has created an amazing artwork that connects us across time, inspiring our creativity and providing us with a space of imagination. It embraces ambiguity and uncertainty, allowing us to create our own interpretations and meanings.
