Where is this?

I'm always looking for old photos that show dogs.

A while ago, I came across this beautiful photo that I'd like to share here.

Every week, an old photograph is published on Akureyri.net in collaboration with the Akureyri Museum to gather information about where and when the photo was taken, and who the photographer was.

This photo shows an old turf building, or more accurately, a rather dilapidated outbuilding. Three boys (or two boys and a man?), one of them on a horse, and a dog are standing outside. The photo was published in August 2025 and no information has been received. If anyone recognizes this photo or location, please contact Akureyri.net.

If anyone reading this has old photos in family albums or on walls showing dogs in Iceland from the old days and is willing to let me have a (digital) copy of them - please contact me. There are so few photos available, and I'd like to make more pictures of dogs visible and preserve them.
