EDITORS COMMENTS
PDC-A-004598-0083 captures the essence of a bygone era on Carl Johan Street in Oslo. The photo print, taken around 1890-1900, transports us back in time to witness the bustling activity of this historic street. In this scene, we see a lively mix of wagons, horse-drawn trams, and people going about their daily lives. The street is teeming with energy as pedestrians navigate through the crowd while carts and wheelbarrows transport goods from one place to another. It's a snapshot of an urban landscape that thrived on commerce and movement. As our gaze travels further down the street, we catch a glimpse of the majestic Royal Palace standing proudly at the end. Its presence adds an air of grandeur to this otherwise busy thoroughfare. The juxtaposition between everyday life and regal architecture creates a fascinating contrast within the frame. The composition skillfully captures both action and stillness simultaneously. People are caught mid-stride or engaged in conversation, giving us a sense of their purposeful journey through this vibrant cityscape. Meanwhile, horse-drawn trams glide along tracks with grace and precision. This print not only provides us with a view into Oslo's past but also serves as an intriguing historical document showcasing early methods of transportation. It offers us insight into how people moved around during that time period – relying on horses for power rather than engines. Although its author remains unidentified, this Alinari print preserves an invaluable piece of history for generations to come.
