EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, dated around 1900, captures the Obelisk of Thorshavn, Faroe Islands, a historic landmark that stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this Nordic archipelago. The Obelisk was erected in 1882, to commemorate the visit of Danish King Christian IX to the Faroe Islands in 1874. The image portrays a group of adults, dressed in traditional attire, gathered around the monument, likely celebrating its unveiling. The Obelisk, made of basalt, is an imposing structure that towers over the urban landscape of Thorshavn, the capital city of the Faroe Islands. The image also depicts a street scene, with vehicles and horses and carts passing by, adding to the sense of bustling activity. The Obelisk, with its intricate design and historical significance, remains a popular attraction for travelers and locals alike, drawing visitors to the town's vibrant streets and rich cultural heritage. This photograph, taken in the late 19th or early 20th century, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Obelisk was a new and proud symbol of the Faroese people's connection to their Danish monarch.
