Finnish construction workers (ab. 1920)
Construction workers in Finland (Ostrobothnia) posing in photographer Erik Hägglund´s studio probably about 1920. The man on the right is Johan Paulin from Vörå, who had returned from America, where he had worked as a navvy for six years. The hat is from his time in the U.S.
The original picture - here shown with my processing and partial colorization - is in the Svenska Litteratursällskapet archive in Helsinki.
