EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking panoramic view of the Sognefjord, Norway's longest and deepest fjord, transports us back in time to the year 1909. The image captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the fjord's serene waters, surrounded by towering cliffs and lush greenery. At the heart of the scene lies the picturesque island of Balholm, with its quaint red-roofed houses and traditional Norwegian farmsteads. The Sognefjord, located in the western part of Norway, has long been a source of inspiration for artists, writers, and travelers from around the world. Its unique geological features, including glaciers, waterfalls, and steep mountains, have made it a popular destination for tourists seeking to experience the natural wonders of Norway. This photograph, taken in 1909, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the pristine beauty of the fjord before the era of mass tourism. The image provides a historic record of the region's natural splendor and the simple way of life of its inhabitants. The Sognefjord has a rich history, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Stone Age. The region has been shaped by the interplay of the fjord's natural elements and the resilient spirit of its people. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring allure of the Sognefjord and its ability to captivate the imagination of those who behold its majesty.
