This print captures a devastating incident that unfolded in Norway over a century ago. In the village of Nesdal, tragedy struck as a cliff unexpectedly collapsed, engulfing the entire settlement and claiming numerous lives. The engraving, published in "Le Petit Parisien" on February 5th, 1905, portrays the sheer magnitude of this natural disaster. The image showcases the immense power of nature as it swallows up homes and structures within its grasp. The intricate details etched by the French School artist bring to life the chaos and destruction caused by this unforeseen event. The colors used in the engraving evoke a sense of somberness and melancholy, reflecting upon the loss suffered by those affected.
