EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a serene moment of haying on a mountain shelf high above Marok village, overlooking the breathtaking Geirangerfjord in Norway. Taken around 1905, this vintage image showcases the timeless beauty of rural life in early 20th century Europe. In this picturesque scene, three local people can be seen engaged in their agricultural work. A male farmer wields a scythe with expertise, while a female farmer assists him diligently. Their hard work is set against the backdrop of majestic mountains and mirror-clear waters of Geirangerfjord, creating an awe-inspiring vista that truly embodies the essence of Norwegian geography. The monochrome aesthetic adds to the nostalgic charm of this photograph, transporting viewers back to an era when farming was not only a profession but also an integral part of regional identity. The tranquility and rusticity captured here evoke feelings of simplicity and harmony with nature. As we gaze upon this stereoscopic card from "The Underwood Travel Library - Norway" we are reminded of the dedication and resilience required for such laborious tasks amidst such stunning natural surroundings. This image serves as both a testament to human perseverance and an homage to the unparalleled beauty found within Norway's landscapes. With its historical significance and artistic appeal, this vintage print offers us a glimpse into rural life in early 20th century Norway—a time when hard work intertwined seamlessly with breathtaking scenery.
