EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph titled "Over sea and river, 1904" we are transported back in time to a hauntingly beautiful scene. The image, captured by the talented photographer O. Vaering, showcases an old rowing boat navigating its way through turbulent waters. The boat is being guided by an elderly woman who exudes strength and resilience despite her age. The composition of the photograph draws our attention to the contrasting elements of life and death. On one hand, we see the vastness of the sea and river stretching out before us, symbolizing endless possibilities and new beginnings. On the other hand, there is a sense of foreboding as we contemplate themes such as illness, disease, and contagion that were prevalent during that era. The inclusion of a tugboat in the distance adds another layer of intrigue to this enigmatic image. It serves as a reminder that even in times of crisis or epidemic, there are always individuals working tirelessly behind the scenes to transport essential goods or provide medical aid. This thought-provoking print by Kittelsen captures not only a moment frozen in time but also invites us to reflect on humanity's ability to persevere through adversity. As we gaze upon this evocative artwork from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of Bridgeman Images, let us remember that history has shown us how resilience can triumph over even the darkest periods - offering hope for brighter days ahead.
