EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time on the Telemarken road in Norway, circa 1905. The image showcases the halt of a stolkjaerre, a traditional Norwegian cart, beside the magnificent Little Rjukan Falls. The foaming waters of the waterfall create an awe-inspiring backdrop for this rural scene. In this snapshot of early 20th-century life, we see local people engaged in conversation near their horses and carts. A man stands by his horse, holding onto the reins while engaging with a lady who is seated on the cart. Both are dressed in typical rustic attire of that era. The photograph beautifully encapsulates elements of Norwegian regionalism and countryside living during this time period. It provides us with glimpses into transportation methods and daily life activities from over a century ago. The monochrome effect adds to its vintage charm, allowing us to appreciate both the natural phenomena surrounding them - such as the spray from the waterfall - as well as details like harnesses and ponies pulling carts along country lanes. Preserved within "The Underwood Travel Library - Norway" this stereoscopic card offers viewers an immersive experience through its three-dimensional effect when viewed using a stereoscope. As we gaze upon this historical treasure today, it serves as a reminder of how far we have come while honoring our rich cultural heritage.
