Most of this is built on reclaim land from wetlands marshlands vital to keeping flood regulated all this willl soon be underwater because you will never ever beat mother nature I wonder whos bright idea was this to condemned your entire province into oblivion because you actually taught you could built this in reclaim land below sea level.
why do all european cities have no green spaces those old cities ofcourse its nothing but cement and stone it seem europeans have hated trees this is why there is very little native old forest left in europe in any at all
Благодарю за видео,за музыку. Музыка просто уносит в то далёкое прошлое,умиротворяет. Тихое спокойное видео,наводящее на размышления. Прекрасная природа,удивительные дома,интересная национальная одежда.
It's amazing. This is one of the most impressive videos I've ever seen. All looks like in a fairytale. The past that came to life. Thank you so much for the video. Greetings from Russia
Look how clean everything is ! The roads the canals .no pollution, no litter because there wasn't so much packaging on things then .I loved this film ,being transported back ioo years ago ,lovely,thank you
They grew their own or got it local. Incomparable to now. We had millions fewer folk on the planet. We have managed to litter space, and left items on Mars (not the Rover) which will be there for eternity.
@@robertjansoer6085 Ach man. Laat mensen toch dromen. Of ga je liever klagen over hoe slecht het vroeger was en over hoe geweldig we het nu hebben? Klier.
I remember living in Zeeland in the mid-seventies and traditional costumes and headdresses were been worn by some of the older women exactly the same as in this great film.
@@GUITARTIME2024 It may well have been for a special event, it is just I have always remembered the image of the elderly couple in costume. Funnily enough, I now live in Brittany and see costumes been worn for all sorts of events.
@@michaelturner6425 Zeeland is bit out of the way by Dutch standards, so I guess its possible that some old ladies might wear the traditional stuff in the 1970s when going to town, but its possible they worked as tour guides or it was Easter or something. In America, to see an old woman in pre-1920s clothing with bonnets and such in the 1970s, when I was a kid, would have been like from another planet for any American.
@@GUITARTIME2024 Traditional dresses are still work today in some places, not just for special events. Granted these places are getting rare. A village close to me it's still quite common to wear them, when they come to the markets it's pretty clear where they come from.
How come? 1919 was the year women had just gotten their voting rights, miscarriages were rampant, poverty was rampant, domestic abuse was rampant, LGBT-activity was punishable by law, death rates were through the roof because of the Spanish Flu and lacking medical services. So please tell me, how were they more lucky?
1919 Netherlands was still an empire so that is not too crazy. I'd argue that even citizens of classical empires had a higher standard of living than many alive today. Actually, the Roman elite were so wealthy by today's standards they would be trillionairs. In short: decent wealth distribution is apparently very challenging when those trying to figure it out are presently rich themselves.
My mother was born in Duinbeek, near Oostkapelle and within biking distance from Middelburg. This footage reminds me of my grandmother who was in full costume until arthritis made it impossible for her to dress up anymore. I remember all the old folk mostly in black. And before the Internet, the rommelmarkt was a WWII collector's dream come true. One of my great uncles, a Canadian, fought here as well.
Mijn vader is geboren in 1916. Toen deze film werd gemaakt was hij nog geen 3 jaar. Het is net of ik in een tijdmachine ben gestapt... Dit doet me veel . Prachtig
One of your best yet! The aerial shots at the beginning were quite breathtaking. And the costumes worn by the women are so intriguing, especially the head-dresses with their ornamentation. What a level of social homogeneity for everyone to dress absolutely the same.
It's embarrassing that these old cities are prettier, more elegant and livable than our dysfunctional ones today. Their simple and harder life was healthier than ours, and it's likely that they were happier than we are, too.
Cities where more beatiful because after the war we were only interested in rebuilding quickly and cheaply because there where many homeless and there was no money due to the war. Before the war we already started building ugly houses, because the Dutch population skyrocketed. On youtube there is a film made by the american goverment called ''Know your ally, The Netherlands'' you can see the rebuilding and de simpler cost effective buildings take shape. They where happier from the tales i hear from the elders around here (i live in Zeeland) People were very friendly, if one man had a machine to plow the ground he went around the village and did that to every front porch, so people could easily grow some extra food. People also traded old stuff like clothing and pans, and traded fish for rabbits, or fruit and veggies depending on what kind of food the men gathered. But the work was very though and people died young to diseases.
Master Rick: I’ve dreamed about time travel since my earliest days. At age 67, it has been realized! I view their past, I am their future, and it happens in the eternal present. Thank you? Not sufficient, sir.
Beautiful Holland, kind people, Dutch women can see that they do a lot of things, hard-working people, compared to my country, China, which era is living in the dark age
Most interesting part I notice about these videos is that in these times lots of people can be seen hanging about. A lot has improved since those times, but the pace of living in these days are something that can be missed.
Thank you for an amazing film. Everything is perfect in a natural way,something we cannot achieve in our now over successful modern era. Oh to go back - things were tough but people didn’t know any better.
Thanks to the great invention of motion pictures, we can transcend time and places. We can travel to 100 years ago freely and see people a long time ago as if they are our neighbors.
I love, I don't know how to say it but is a feeling of happiness watching this video. Thank you! Felicidades buen trabajo. Greetings from Guayaquil Ecuador Southamerica
The interesting thing about this video is that it show life as it was from the middleages until that moment. The only 'modern' things are the bicycles and that one car. Zeeland was (and for the most part still is) very rural.
Amazing, simply amazing. To have a detailed view into the life a hundred years back...incredible. Everyone dressed better than nowadays, there was far less bustle and the architecture so much more interesting.
It is really beautiful Netherlands I hope one day to be able to touch the land of the Netherlands with my feet and hands and see the great landscapes of that majestic place so green, so fresh, and eat from the Its delicious cheeses and sausages, what a fascinating place what a beautiful culture I love Netherlands
Of all the UA-cam videos I've watched these restored films get the most intelligent and kind comments I've ever read. That is as comforting and soothing as watching them. Thank you for sharing them and thank you to all who had such lovely insightful things to say.
I’ve seen similar films that have been color added but this is by far the best because of the addition of music in the background instead of just silent movies

What is the bet there is a 80 year old man in that village saying: These young people are vain and lazy. Back in my day. Just the other day I saw a women in the village showing her ankle. This world is out of control.
@@武當山-f6d In the past Dutch women used to dress modestly. Because many of them were either Christian or Jewish. So sad they left their religion and culture..... I am a Dutch convert Muslim lady. Which means I am a native Dutch, and I am Muslim. :)
@@AG-wb3db WHAT?! Bruh...allow me to keep my harsh words. I feel sad for your country. Dutch people & women were great it is a great sadness to lose you guys. yourself is an reflection of dying west. When a Civilization is in declining, Weaklings especially some women firstly abandoned their mother culture and surrender themselves completely to the invaders, this happened in Chinese history as well, We call those people as "sinners traitors and faceless (No shame) people" And very heavily punished them when took our nation back. They were allowed to live only on boats. I heard of in Europe that was the same, after WW2 in nazi occupied European nations, traitors got half of their hair shaved. Guess what? I do NOT agree with that, When a nation is so weak, everyone is a sinner. Those weaklings only want to live better as long as they didn't sold or try to stop other resisting people, They are not more sinful that us all. those people were treated to harshly, hopeful one day, they can treat you with fairness & kindness. Milady.
I love to see the people working together and lots of smirks and smiles for the camera. No distractions ( internet, smartphone, advertisements) just living and working together with goodwill and LOVE for one another.
This came recommended to me by youtube. What a lovely video thankyou for sharing. Gave me an understanding of what life was like for my Oma as a 5 year old child after the war.....
Wanneer je niet beter wist,zou je denken er wordt een film opgenomen in het volkenkundigmuseum over 1919, alleen de schaal is te groot; want het is echt! Verbluffend mooi..!
I am angry from here in Eastern Europe because, we also have all kinds of technological developments, but we still cling to our culture, in contrast to many Western European countries. In the recording we can see a perfect example of northern culture! I see that Western Europeans could work too ... then, why can't they today ? Why do Poles and Romanians pick berries in the Netherlands and what is the problem with Christianity today ?
Because Poles and Romanians are willing to work for a few pennies. They can go Home and back in Poland it’s considered an income. In the Netherlands its just pocketmoney for the young, you couldn’t even rent a garage off a months salary berrypicking.
@@ikkelimburg3552 wat een onzin. A few pennies? Ze krijgen mooi loon waar ze in eigen land niet eens dokter of tandarts krijgt. Bijvoorbeeld hier in Georgie heb ik kassen zo'n 50 man indienst. Krijgen 50 lari per dag (ik betaal 20 lari meer dan een ander) dat is 13 euro voor 10 uur werkdag. Als ze horen wat ze in Nederland kunnen krijgen.....
Your 'anger' seems misplaced. Since I lived in Romania for a couple of years, I gained some insight. The ones sticking to culture the most, were the ones, who were poorest and did not get out of their villages. People in the Netherlands are still hard working people, mostly. But some jobs pay a lot better, than others. Berry picking is relatively hard work physically for a small salary, compared to working in the office and getting a much better paycheck. So not many people with a good education (which almost all have in the Netherlands) are willing to choose such work. Since the parents are mainly richer, their children rather go on vacation during the holidays, then work for a relative small paycheck, which they don't need. Let them enjoy themselves for the time being; hard work will come soon enough. For housing costs are very high in the Netherlands and soon they will be buried in bills, responsibilities and hard work. Have no clue what you mean with the Christianity problem today. Real Christians are still good and hard working people, giving of their money and time to help others. The only problem perhaps is, that less and less people are looking for God. Like the Bible says: you cannot serve both money and God. People have always looked for excuses to sin, in all cultures and all times. Most certainly also in Eastern Europe. Plus, it does help, when immigrants are not that interested in living in your country, since it is less rich. Especially immigrants from muslim countries have caused and still are causing a lot of problems in the Netherlands, according to statistics. The workers from Poland and Romania come here, because they earn much more money in a short time here, than for the same job or even a much better job, in their home country. So they make a lot of money and the smart ones invest that in buying an apartment of house in their own country. Since this benefits all participating countries, intelligent people do not complain about this.
Het blijft me fascineren om mensen in de bloei van hun leven te zien met de wetenschap dat ze allemaal al lang dood zijn. Als ik naar zo'n vrolijk lachend gezicht kijk vraag ik me altijd af wie was jij en hoe is jou verdere leven verlopen. Ik denk dat ik best wel gelukkig zou kunnen zijn in die tijd. Het Nederland van vandaag de dag vind ik toch iets minder.
Het zou nog mooier zijn wanneer we onze luxe zouden kunnen combineren met de mentaliteit van toen. Ik hecht toch echt wel waarde aan een warme douche, electriciteit, koffiezetapparaatje etc. etc. Qua levensstandaard zijn wij er enorm op vooruit gegaan. De dingen die wij voor lief nemen, bestonden 100 jaar geleden simpelweg niet. Echt niet alles was beter toen.
Now this is impressive. This is sort of, what I've been talking about. If we can get all the old film looking like this or slightly, better it will be indistinguishable from modern day film. Truly, bringing the past into the present. Bravo. This is really, quite, breathtaking. My Best.
Thank you for sharing! Here I am transported to another dimension, an era both so close and so far away... It's like entering a fantasy movie set... It had no TV, no smartphone... We went to bed early with a good book and dreamed... Do children still dream today? Or our time in such a way destroyed their dreams?
Thank you Rick for this beautiful video. It is so special to see, I can almost not comprehend that this is real footage from 100 years ago. My great-grand mother is from Zeeland and lived during this time. I have a picture of her wearing this type of traditional clothing! It is a shame to see some of the comments are negative, political, or hateful. Therefore I just want to say again that I appreciate your work. And also that I think we can both value the past and the current times for the good parts and also acknowledge the lesser parts. But let's be kind to each other now, while we still can! :)

You have no comprehension of how hard life was then, of how hard people of all ages except the youngest and elderly, especially here, where the sea continually tried to reclaim the land. It’s a filmmaker’s job to make his/her subjects look idyllic, or to idealize them for people who would watch the films.
@@voraciousreader3341 It was harder in some ways, easier in others, and better in almost every way. Did people have to work harder and longer? Yes of course. But not everyone is afraid of hard work.
@@mercster Like Mercster said, some thing were better but the work was insanely tough. Don't expect to reach your 55th birthday back then in Zeeland, you worked until you couldn't go any further and died young. That said, before the Americans liberated Europe, people where way more friendly. Im thankful for their liberation ofcourse (And ofcourse the Canadians and Scottish, they liberated Zeeland) But Americans are more self centered then we where before and we took that habit. Before the Second world war everyone knew everyone, and everyone was friendly, though a bit harsh at times, to one another. Thats something i miss in Zeeland these days, although its still common in the very small villages >500 people
Graag gedaan. Ik heb tot drie keer toe Beeld en Geluid aangeboden films voor ze te restaureren, maar ze lijken niet geïnteresseerd. Ze investeren momenteel weer miljoenen in een grote verbouwing van hun gebouw, (alweer) gericht op een interactieve media 'speeltuin' voor kinderen, maar geld uitgeven voor het moderniseren van hun archief ten bate van iedereen, ook 50 plussers, terwijl dat juist degenen zijn die dit soort materiaal waarderen: ?!?!?
@@Rick88888888 Prioriteiten van overheden zijn vaak helaas ondergeschikt aan de wensen of belangen van het volk die ze behoren te dienen. Ga gewoon door. Vroeg of laat kunnen ze niet meer om je heen. Je hebt allang laten zien wat je allemaal kunt. Kijk echter uit met het zgn 'in de keuken laten kijken', zodat al je processen stiekem gecopieerd worden. Ik spreek uit ervaring. Instanties doen niets liever dan in eigen beheer van allerlei dingen broddelen die vaak nergens op slaan. Bij internationale faam kan betrokkenheid bij zulke zaken enorme schade berokkenen. Probeer deze dingen dus te vermijden als het kan en zorg met waterdichte contracten. Als je die nml niet hebt, word je over het algemeen vaak misbruikt.
Great piece of work. Congrats. Whoever filmed it back then had a good eye for composition and detail. People back then were hard working and God fearing people. While life was less complicated, it was also pretty hard. One needed to work hard and stay healthy. There were not that many good medications back then and people could die easily from an infection. Child mortality was also higher back then. All that made for strong, tough and hardened people. But there was also time for play :-)
So beautiful. I really hope I can bring my daughter to visit Zeeland and the rest of Holland. All the videos you post show such beautiful country. I can not wait to see Holland, again, now that I am older, but your videos bring us so much joy. Another 5 star video, Rick88888888!

I never before saw what appears to be people wearing the precurser to sunglasses; little reflectors worn on the sides of the head to reduce sun glare. Fascinating video.
That’s not what they were for, at least in the articles I’ve seen. Unless, of course, you have links to prove that they functioned as “sunglasses,” which would only be for peripheral vision. They certainly wouldn’t be at all functional, as a woman looking or walking into the east of a morning would have the sun directly in her eyes, despite her “sunglasses.” It literally takes seconds to verify or discredit our guesses....I’m always amazed when people clothe guesses as facts, without taking a few minutes on the Internet to see if they’re right!
Its not a precursor to sunglasses. Me and my ancestors are from zeeland. My grandma once explained that those gold pieces you see were part of the 'oorijzers' . Oor = ear and ijzer = iron. They were used to attach the caps firmly to the head. And the metal pieces on front were for aesthetics, display of wealth, to show which island, polder or village you were from and what religion you had.
Dan maar in het Nederlands, want Google Translate vond het blijkbaar niet boeiend, geweldige documentaire 😍👍 ik zie plekken waar ik echt ben geweest. Maar dan in 1919! Helemaal TOP 🤗🤗💕🙏🙏🙏
The city is called Middelburg and the movie was shot on a thursday, because there was/is a weekly thursday market in front of the city council hall. The people wearing the costumes are mosty people living on farms or in little fishing villages on the island of Walcheren that have come to the market to sell their products.
Het Nederland dat dichter bij mijn jeugd in de jaren 1970 staat dan het beeld van 2020. Prachtig, echt heel mooi bewerkt. Zit toevallig in een fotoboek van Alphons Hustinx te kijken, dus ben in the mood.
Gorgeous footage that vividly shows life in rural northern Europe, a hundred years ago, and a mere year after WWI ended (or as they would have referred to it, The Great War)
It should be noted however that for the neutral Netherlands ww1 mainly meant mobilisation and a refugee crisis etc. the war didn't leave quite the same mark here as it did over the rest of the future Benelux

Just the other day I saw a women in the village showing her ankle. This world is out of control.
exactlyyy xD Frisia is built upon democracy though, and at this time queen Wilhelmina was in rule.
Half naked modern ladies look better! ^___^ Blame us men.
@@武當山-f6d In the past Dutch women used to dress modestly. Because many of them were either Christian or Jewish. So sad they left their religion and culture.....
I am a Dutch convert Muslim lady. Which means I am a native Dutch, and I am Muslim. :)
@@AG-wb3db WHAT?! Bruh...allow me to keep my harsh words. I feel sad for your country. Dutch people & women were great it is a great sadness to lose you guys. yourself is an reflection of dying west. When a Civilization is in declining, Weaklings especially some women firstly abandoned their mother culture and surrender themselves completely to the invaders, this happened in Chinese history as well, We call those people as "sinners traitors and faceless (No shame) people" And very heavily punished them when took our nation back. They were allowed to live only on boats. I heard of in Europe that was the same, after WW2 in nazi occupied European nations, traitors got half of their hair shaved. Guess what? I do NOT agree with that, When a nation is so weak, everyone is a sinner. Those weaklings only want to live better as long as they didn't sold or try to stop other resisting people, They are not more sinful that us all. those people were treated to harshly, hopeful one day, they can treat you with fairness & kindness. Milady.
I love to see the people working together and lots of smirks and smiles for the camera. No distractions ( internet, smartphone, advertisements) just living and working together with goodwill and LOVE for one another.
Yet there still was 2 world wars

Zo mooi. Wauw. Je bent geweldig. Dankjewel. Ik kreeg een hoofdpijn naar zwart wit en schuddende films te zien. Maar dit, dit is absoluut geniaal.
Es fascinantes quisiera ir a esa época.. wwuuao
Dit zal mijn grootmoeder prachtig vinden, de locatie betreffende zou er zelfs nog familie van me tussen kunnen zitten. Bedankt Rick.
We think that we are the hosts, when infact we are all but the guests
We grow kruisbessen! The gooseberry bushes have thorns! Will learn from these women, and wear gloves to pluck the berries.
Quality is outstanding. Thanks for posting
Omg this is amazing. The women's seems very polite.
This came recommended to me by youtube. What a lovely video thankyou for sharing. Gave me an understanding of what life was like for my Oma as a 5 year old child after the war.....
Wanneer je niet beter wist,zou je denken er wordt een film opgenomen in het volkenkundigmuseum over 1919, alleen de schaal is te groot; want het is echt! Verbluffend mooi..!
Beautiful and beautiful music.
I am angry from here in Eastern Europe because, we also have all kinds of technological developments, but we still cling to our culture, in contrast to many Western European countries. In the recording we can see a perfect example of northern culture! I see that Western Europeans could work too ... then, why can't they today ? Why do Poles and Romanians pick berries in the Netherlands and what is the problem with Christianity today ?
Christianity has been corrupted beyond recognition. We have turned our backs on our God and are now paying the price.
Because Poles and Romanians are willing to work for a few pennies. They can go Home and back in Poland it’s considered an income. In the Netherlands its just pocketmoney for the young, you couldn’t even rent a garage off a months salary berrypicking.
@@ikkelimburg3552 wat een onzin. A few pennies? Ze krijgen mooi loon waar ze in eigen land niet eens dokter of tandarts krijgt. Bijvoorbeeld hier in Georgie heb ik kassen zo'n 50 man indienst. Krijgen 50 lari per dag (ik betaal 20 lari meer dan een ander) dat is 13 euro voor 10 uur werkdag.
Als ze horen wat ze in Nederland kunnen krijgen.....
@@mmartijn78
Interessant.
Kunnen ze daar van rondkomen?
Ik bedoel, een gezin onderhouden, of zo?
Your 'anger' seems misplaced.
Since I lived in Romania for a couple of years, I gained some insight. The ones sticking to culture the most, were the ones, who were poorest and did not get out of their villages.
People in the Netherlands are still hard working people, mostly. But some jobs pay a lot better, than others. Berry picking is relatively hard work physically for a small salary, compared to working in the office and getting a much better paycheck. So not many people with a good education (which almost all have in the Netherlands) are willing to choose such work.
Since the parents are mainly richer, their children rather go on vacation during the holidays, then work for a relative small paycheck, which they don't need. Let them enjoy themselves for the time being; hard work will come soon enough. For housing costs are very high in the Netherlands and soon they will be buried in bills, responsibilities and hard work.
Have no clue what you mean with the Christianity problem today. Real Christians are still good and hard working people, giving of their money and time to help others. The only problem perhaps is, that less and less people are looking for God. Like the Bible says: you cannot serve both money and God. People have always looked for excuses to sin, in all cultures and all times. Most certainly also in Eastern Europe. Plus, it does help, when immigrants are not that interested in living in your country, since it is less rich. Especially immigrants from muslim countries have caused and still are causing a lot of problems in the Netherlands, according to statistics.
The workers from Poland and Romania come here, because they earn much more money in a short time here, than for the same job or even a much better job, in their home country. So they make a lot of money and the smart ones invest that in buying an apartment of house in their own country.
Since this benefits all participating countries, intelligent people do not complain about this.
Love the headgear that the women of that era wears...sure it has a different meaning and significant
Het blijft me fascineren om mensen in de bloei van hun leven te zien met de wetenschap dat ze allemaal al lang dood zijn. Als ik naar zo'n vrolijk lachend gezicht kijk vraag ik me altijd af wie was jij en hoe is jou verdere leven verlopen. Ik denk dat ik best wel gelukkig zou kunnen zijn in die tijd. Het Nederland van vandaag de dag vind ik toch iets minder.
Het zou nog mooier zijn wanneer we onze luxe zouden kunnen combineren met de mentaliteit van toen. Ik hecht toch echt wel waarde aan een warme douche, electriciteit, koffiezetapparaatje etc. etc. Qua levensstandaard zijn wij er enorm op vooruit gegaan. De dingen die wij voor lief nemen, bestonden 100 jaar geleden simpelweg niet. Echt niet alles was beter toen.
@@uplinkx1126 Wanneer de mobiele telefoon 2000 jaar voor Christus was uitgevonden, dan had iedereen destijds een mobiele telefoon.
Now this is impressive. This is sort of, what I've been talking about. If we can get all the old film looking like this or slightly, better it will be indistinguishable from modern day film. Truly, bringing the past into the present.
Bravo. This is really, quite, breathtaking. My Best.
Thank you for sharing! Here I am transported to another dimension, an era both so close and so far away... It's like entering a fantasy movie set... It had no TV, no smartphone... We went to bed early with a good book and dreamed... Do children still dream today? Or our time in such a way destroyed their dreams?
Thank you Rick for this beautiful video. It is so special to see, I can almost not comprehend that this is real footage from 100 years ago. My great-grand mother is from Zeeland and lived during this time. I have a picture of her wearing this type of traditional clothing! It is a shame to see some of the comments are negative, political, or hateful. Therefore I just want to say again that I appreciate your work. And also that I think we can both value the past and the current times for the good parts and also acknowledge the lesser parts. But let's be kind to each other now, while we still can! :)
Well said, thanks!
Beautiful ❤️ 🙏🏼
Deze video laat me een tijd missen die ik niet geleefd heb. Ik ben helaas pas 75 jaar later geboren.
The music chosen for this is really nice.

You have no comprehension of how hard life was then, of how hard people of all ages except the youngest and elderly, especially here, where the sea continually tried to reclaim the land. It’s a filmmaker’s job to make his/her subjects look idyllic, or to idealize them for people who would watch the films.
@@voraciousreader3341 look the world in our time is demonic with fake virus and fake media with all nations trouble.
@@voraciousreader3341 It was harder in some ways, easier in others, and better in almost every way. Did people have to work harder and longer? Yes of course. But not everyone is afraid of hard work.
@@mercster Like Mercster said, some thing were better but the work was insanely tough. Don't expect to reach your 55th birthday back then in Zeeland, you worked until you couldn't go any further and died young.
That said, before the Americans liberated Europe, people where way more friendly. Im thankful for their liberation ofcourse (And ofcourse the Canadians and Scottish, they liberated Zeeland) But Americans are more self centered then we where before and we took that habit. Before the Second world war everyone knew everyone, and everyone was friendly, though a bit harsh at times, to one another. Thats something i miss in Zeeland these days, although its still common in the very small villages >500 people

Graag gedaan. Ik heb tot drie keer toe Beeld en Geluid aangeboden films voor ze te restaureren, maar ze lijken niet geïnteresseerd. Ze investeren momenteel weer miljoenen in een grote verbouwing van hun gebouw, (alweer) gericht op een interactieve media 'speeltuin' voor kinderen, maar geld uitgeven voor het moderniseren van hun archief ten bate van iedereen, ook 50 plussers, terwijl dat juist degenen zijn die dit soort materiaal waarderen: ?!?!?

Instanties doen niets liever dan in eigen beheer van allerlei dingen broddelen die vaak nergens op slaan.

Great piece of work. Congrats. Whoever filmed it back then had a good eye for composition and detail. People back then were hard working and God fearing people. While life was less complicated, it was also pretty hard. One needed to work hard and stay healthy. There were not that many good medications back then and people could die easily from an infection. Child mortality was also higher back then. All that made for strong, tough and hardened people. But there was also time for play :-)
Hoe mooi bijzonder! Bedankt voor de beelden :)

I never before saw what appears to be people wearing the precurser to sunglasses; little reflectors worn on the sides of the head to reduce sun glare. Fascinating video.
That’s not what they were for, at least in the articles I’ve seen. Unless, of course, you have links to prove that they functioned as “sunglasses,” which would only be for peripheral vision. They certainly wouldn’t be at all functional, as a woman looking or walking into the east of a morning would have the sun directly in her eyes, despite her “sunglasses.” It literally takes seconds to verify or discredit our guesses....I’m always amazed when people clothe guesses as facts, without taking a few minutes on the Internet to see if they’re right!
Its not a precursor to sunglasses. Me and my ancestors are from zeeland. My grandma once explained that those gold pieces you see were part of the 'oorijzers' . Oor = ear and ijzer = iron. They were used to attach the caps firmly to the head. And the metal pieces on front were for aesthetics, display of wealth, to show which island, polder or village you were from and what religion you had.
Brilliant, and right in the middle of serenity an advert reminding you of how shit it is now
Amazing job!!! FANTASTIC! I like to see the people. Impossible not imagine their lives... Brazil
excellent video. thanks
Dan maar in het Nederlands, want Google Translate vond het blijkbaar niet boeiend, geweldige documentaire 😍👍 ik zie plekken waar ik echt ben geweest. Maar dan in 1919! Helemaal TOP 🤗🤗💕🙏🙏🙏

Prachtig hoe Middelburg haar historisch centrum heeft weten te behouden
The city is called Middelburg and the movie was shot on a thursday, because there was/is a weekly thursday market in front of the city council hall. The people wearing the costumes are mosty people living on farms or in little fishing villages on the island of Walcheren that have come to the market to sell their products.
Het Nederland dat dichter bij mijn jeugd in de jaren 1970 staat dan het beeld van 2020. Prachtig, echt heel mooi bewerkt. Zit toevallig in een fotoboek van Alphons Hustinx te kijken, dus ben in the mood.
Я в шоке от качества снятого материала.. В 1919 году родилась моя бабушка, и умерла в 1988 году, когда мне было 7 лет
Отредактировали наверное
Gorgeous footage that vividly shows life in rural northern Europe, a hundred years ago, and a mere year after WWI ended (or as they would have referred to it, The Great War)
It should be noted however that for the neutral Netherlands ww1 mainly meant mobilisation and a refugee crisis etc. the war didn't leave quite the same mark here as it did over the rest of the future Benelux
@@TheStraatjutter Good point!
