[A house, interior, Marken Island, Holland] (LOC)

  An 1880 article describes the isolated fishing island that Marken will have been when these photos were taken. "The men are extraordinarily sober, and live to a great age. They leave the island every Sunday night with their boats, pass the week fishing in the Zuyder Zee, and return on the Saturday. The women educate the children, cultivate the ground, and make the clothing for the family. Like all the other Dutch women, they love cleanliness and ornament, and in their cabins also are to be seen the inevitable white curtains, glass cups, embroidered bed-covers, looking-glasses, and flowers. The greater part of them never see any other land than that of their little island. " See www.oldandsold.com/articles19/holland-14.shtml After the Afsluitdijk dam closed the Zuiderzee and formed the Ijsselmeer, Marken was joined to the mainland by a causeway in 1957.
