Archivo: Behouden Huys in 1881

Descripción: Photograph of a log cabin of unknown date, builder, or location. The caption on the website it was uploaded from states that it is the "Behouden Huys" of William Barents on Novaya Zemlya. However, Elling Carlsen discovered and sketched the ruins of the Behouden Huys 1871 and noted it's dimensions as 12 yards by 7.5 yards. On July 29th, 1876, Charles L.W. Gardiner noted that "Everything that was not pulled down by Captain Carlsen in 1871, has by this time tumbled down ; not a vestige of the old house remains standing" In short, the attribution to Willem Barents is clearly bogus.
