EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Asbjorn Kloster Monument, a tribute to one of Norway's most influential social reformers and leaders of the Norwegian temperance movement in the late 19th century. Asbjorn Kloster, born on December 21, 1823, was deeply inspired by the Quaker movement, also known as the Religious Society of Friends, and their commitment to total abstinence from alcohol. In 1858, he founded the first total abstinence society in Norway, marking the beginning of a significant shift in Norwegian society's relationship with alcohol. The monument, located in Stavanger, was erected in 1912 to honor Kloster's enduring legacy. The statue, which depicts Kloster in thoughtful contemplation, stands as a testament to his unwavering dedication to social reform and his belief in the power of individual action to bring about positive change. The monument, dating back to the 1910s, is a cherished landmark in Stavanger and a reminder of Kloster's groundbreaking work in advocating for temperance and promoting a healthier, more responsible society. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the enduring impact of one man's vision and commitment to a cause, and the power of community support in bringing about lasting change.
