EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Akershus in 1914, a county of Norway that exudes history and charm. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing architectural beauty is undeniable. Akershus Fortress stands proudly on the Oslofjord, serving as both a medieval castle and royal residence. This imposing structure also served as a military base, adding an air of strength and significance to its already impressive presence. The photograph is taken from "Norge - Turistruter I 65 Billeder" a book published by Mittet & Co in Kristania (now Oslo) in 1914. It offers us a glimpse into the past, showcasing the fortification's exterior against the backdrop of the picturesque fjord. In this scene, rowing boats are peacefully moored along the harbour wall while larger vessels navigate through calm waters. The combination of land and water transport highlights Akershus' strategic location as well as its accessibility for tourists eager to explore this enchanting part of Europe. As we admire this vintage print with its monochrome aesthetic, we can't help but be drawn into the timeless allure of Akershus Fortress. Its rich history continues to captivate visitors today, making it one of Norway's most cherished tourist attractions.
