About the Item
Summer in the 1930s
Captured in 1936 by German photographer Heinz Pollmann, this evocative image shows a young woman peacefully paddling across a lake in a classic Klepper folding kayak, a hallmark of German leisure culture in the interwar years. Nestled in the front of the boat, a small puppy rests contentedly, embodying the carefree charm of summer days gone by.
Wearing a polka-dot scarf and bathing suit, the woman gazes toward the open water, as sailboats drift across the background – a perfect blend of serenity and freedom.
Originally produced as a promotional photograph for Klepper folding boats, this scene captures both the innovation of German outdoor design and the joyful simplicity of summer recreation in the 1930s.
A timeless moment of ease, companionship, and the gentle rhythm of water.
The print is new, a Fine Art Print on Illford Black and White Paper quality paper made by Whitewall. It comes to you in a tube.
