EDITORS COMMENTS
This image presents a distant view of the picturesque town of Molde, nestled along the shores of Moldefjord in Western Norway. Circa 1900, the photograph showcases the serene beauty of the region, with the fjord stretching out before the town, reflecting the clear blue sky above. The small, quaint houses and buildings cling to the hillsides, their red rooftops contrasting against the lush greenery and the towering, snow-capped mountains in the background. Molde, known as the "City of Roses," is renowned for its stunning location between the fjord and the mountains. The town's rich history is evident in its well-preserved wooden houses and beautiful churches, such as the Molde Cathedral and the Church of Our Saviour. The photograph, part of the Boswell Collection, captures the essence of Western Norway's breathtaking landscapes and the charm of its small towns. The peaceful scene is further enhanced by the gentle light and the tranquil atmosphere, making it an ideal representation of the region's natural beauty. This photograph, taken around the turn of the 20th century, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to imagine the daily life of the people who once called this place home. The lantern slide format of the image adds to its historical significance, as it was a popular medium for presentations and educational purposes during that era. Today, it serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of Western Norway and the captivating beauty of its fjords and mountains.
