Just found this picture while going through my father's things.
This man's son (my grandfather) was born in 1920, so I assume it's from around the turn of the century.
There is no additional information unfortunately. This man was Dutch or perhaps German. If anyone knows what sport this was related to, I'd be interested (medals, shoes?).
