EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back in time to the early 1900s in Western Norway, specifically the picturesque village of Fibstad-Hougen. The photograph, part of the Boswell Collection, showcases a quaint scene of a cart laden with goods making its way along a narrow, winding road. The cart's worn wheels and harnesses speak to the daily labor and perseverance of the community. In the background, the majestic mountains of Western Norway rise up, their snow-capped peaks piercing the sky. The rugged terrain, dotted with trees and stone walls, is a testament to the region's raw beauty and natural splendor. The sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene, illuminating the cart and the surrounding landscape. A lantern rests atop the cart, suggesting that the journey may continue into the evening hours. The lantern's flickering light adds a sense of mystery and intrigue to the image, as we wonder about the destination and the people making their way through the breathtaking landscape. This photograph is a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life and rural charm of Western Norway over a century ago. The image captures the essence of a simpler time, when the connection to the land and the community was deeply rooted in the lives of its people.
