This photograph shows members of the Sharpshooters Society of the Crown Prince of Netherlands posing with their rifles. With continuous improvement of camera technology, it became possible to take photographs outside a studio in the first decades of the 20th century. Many middle-class families collected photographs in albums as a way of documenting family life, or documentasi keluarga.
