EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Balholm in 1914, a picturesque village located on the northern shore of the majestic Sognefjord in Norway. The image showcases the magnificent Kviknes Hotel, a chalet-style building that was completed just a year prior, in 1913. This architectural gem stands proudly against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains and offers an enchanting view of the surrounding landscape. The photograph is sourced from "Norge - Turistruter I 65 Billeder" a book published by Mittet & Co Kunstforlag in Kristania (now Oslo) in 1914. It beautifully captures the charm and historic significance of this Norwegian tourist attraction. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the scene, emphasizing its vintage appeal. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to an era when travel was more about exploration than convenience. The flags flying high atop wooden poles remind us of national pride and add a touch of color to an otherwise muted palette. This print serves as both documentation and artistry—a testament to human ingenuity blending harmoniously with nature's grandeur. It invites us to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also the cultural heritage embedded within these walls. Whether you are drawn by its architectural allure or enticed by its scenic surroundings, this image evokes wanderlust and encourages us to embark on our own journeys through time and place.
