Two Photographs – Austro-Hungarian Army Officers in Maramureș - World War I Period
Two photographs documenting, presumably, a Jewish crowd gathering around officers from the Austro-Hungarian army during World War I. Maramureș (Hungarian Empire at the time), ca. second decade of the 20th century. The photographs portray a group of officers in dress uniform, smoking and talking in the street, surrounded by soldiers and observers (probably Jews). Seen in one of the photographs is an officer handing charity to two children wearing rags.
Approx. 11X15 cm. Good condition. Thick paper is pasted on the back of both photographs. Some blemishes to one photograph.
