Family Life at Pavia House in Zeist

Henry Pauw van Wieldrecht (mentioned on object), 1897-08

These photographs reveal Pauw van Wieldrecht’s development from amateur to exceptionally talented photographer. His key subjects were family and domestic life in and around the family homes, travels, outings, and hunting. We see the photographer’s nephew Reinier (1897), brother Maarten defending himself from a charging (stuffed) wild boar (May 1898) and the domestic staff (August 1897).
