Bauernkinder. Westerwald, ca 1927/28
Farm children

Two kids, a sheep.
All of them looking straight into the camera.

Nothing to say about the sheep.

The boy,
his gaze,
a mixture of pride, sadness and adult like scepticism.

The girl,
her gaze,
a shy smile,
shadows under her eyes,
looking tired.

Fashion changes,
society changes,
but the emotions expressed by us,
they stay the same.
