In Kamppi 100 years ago! ✨ The photo was taken on Eerikinkatu and the handsome stone castle visible in the background is Yrjönkatu 25. The photo also shows a wooden house at Eerikinkatu 2. However, the most attention-grabbing thing is the child in the picture and his expression! The child looks reserved or at least confused. Or just tired of posing? 😄 - A child posing for the camera a century ago in Helsinki. ****************************** Matti Kenttämaa, Helsinki City Museum, 1922, CC BY 4.0.
