Group of male dancers, northern Caroline Islands, circa 1910.

Bromide print photograph, 85 x 113 mm, verso inscribed in pencil by the unknown photographer ‘N. Carolinen. Männer – Sitztänzer’ (=’Men – sitting dancers’); in fine condition, and with great detail when enlarged.

This photograph of young male performers was taken towards the end of the German colonial administration of the Carolines, possibly on Yap or in the Ulithi atoll, by an unidentified photographer using a private camera.
