EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1905 showcases the charm of old log houses nestled in Bratslandsdal, Norway. The unique feature that sets these structures apart is the presence of trees growing on their sod-covered roofs, creating a truly surreal sight. From an elevated view, one can appreciate the beauty of this remote valley surrounded by majestic mountains. The image captures two local people, a man and a woman, standing near one of the log cabins. Their presence adds scale to the scene and gives us a glimpse into rural life in early 20th century Norway. The lady's traditional attire and the gentleman's rugged appearance reflect regionalism and provide insight into Norwegian culture at that time. The concept of living roofs covered with turf was not only practical but also added to the rustic charm of these buildings. It is fascinating to see how nature seamlessly integrates itself with human habitation in this picturesque landscape. This vintage stereoscopic card transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the architectural ingenuity displayed by these log cabins as well as the natural beauty surrounding them. This photograph serves as a reminder of our connection with history and our ability to coexist harmoniously with nature even in remote locations like Bratslandsdal.
