EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque village of Merok on the Geiranger Fjord in Norway, captured in 1914 by an unknown creator. The focal point of the image is a charming village church, standing proudly amidst its stunning natural surroundings. The architectural features of the church are beautifully highlighted against the snow-capped mountains that serve as a breathtaking backdrop. The scene comes alive with activity as we see a horse-drawn carriage passing by, carrying locals and visitors alike. A group of children can be seen playing nearby, adding a touch of innocence and joy to this serene landscape. It is evident that this close-knit community finds solace and unity within their shared faith, as Christianity plays an integral role in their daily lives. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes clear that Merok was not only a place of religious significance but also a popular tourist attraction even back then. The untouched beauty of Geirangerfjorden draws people from all over Europe who seek respite from their bustling city lives. This print serves as both an artistic representation and historical documentation of life in early 20th century Norway. Through its monochrome lens, it transports us to another time and place where nature's grandeur meets human ingenuity and spirituality.
