This photo was probably taken in the early 20th, if not 19th century... of a traditional Icelandic house in the western area of Reykjavík (Vesturbær), which is the semi-suburban neighborhood where ktspktsp and I currently live. I am probably related to the woman in the photo, in one way or another. So here I am, sitting at home, watching the snow fall outside the window of our own 70 year old apartment.
The only credit I can find on the website is for a guy named Gísli Ólafur.
