This black and white portrait, titled "Experimental Divorce which became permanent" captures a significant moment in the lives of Mr. John Van Alstyen and his wife. Taken on 6th September 1922, this monochrome photograph showcases a unique historical event that unfolded during the early 20th century. In an era where divorce was still considered taboo, this couple courageously agreed to embark on an experimental separation that ultimately led to their permanent divorce. The intensity of their emotions is palpable as they pose for the camera, revealing both vulnerability and strength. The image exudes a sense of mystery, leaving viewers curious about the circumstances surrounding their decision. Their expressions convey complex emotions - perhaps reflecting feelings of liberation or sorrow intertwined with uncertainty about what lies ahead.
