    What a lovely scene. I'm getting vibes from southern Sweden (Småland?), maybe because it reminds me of "Emil i Lönneberga"! Or maybe further south? I wonder if the (very cool) thatched roof could be a clue as to where it was taken? The boy's clogs? And the way the two buildings are joined together like that, that seems atypical for most of Sweden.

    grytlappar I'm glad you like the photo! As you suggest; the clogs, the thatched roof and the buildings points to southern Sweden. (Halland?) Besides, Salfon Almquist, the probable photographer, had his early studio in Helsingborg in Skåne. /Anna B.

    Also, the cat is very cool! And alert - very aware of the camera. :) I don't think I've ever seen a white cat with a striped tail! I'm guessing that woman is coming out of the root cellar.

    :) I used to have wooden skis and poles similar to this in the 50s, early 60s. And the ski bindings were like springs around the back of the boots which had deep grooves. What memories! My grand mother used to wear a long skirt with bristles at the bottom when she was skiing (overseas).

    These lads were made of pretty stern stuff back then...

    lol, great one State Library! You had me fooled! :) I was a bit puzzled why the guy on the left is wearing a short sleeved shirt and the guy on the right an outfit that could have been worn in the snow. But then I thought, some may be feeling hot in the winter sun, some may be feeling cool! I miss those magnificent sand dunes at Cronulla! A great shot in b & w! :)

    Yes a Sydney winter can be warm - you can see the sweat on the half buried man's collar
