Er ikke dette P.Z. serien? Altså Photochrom Zürich som har gitt ut dette bilde?

Det var flere utgivere av disse photochromene. Dette eksemplaret er ikke merket med "P.Z.". Vi har derfor foreløpig ikke angitt utgiver. Se også her: www.loc.gov/pictures/collection/pgz/process.html for mer informasjon fra Library of Congress.

interesting! I'd love to know what's going on here - sadly, I don't speak Norwegian

Dear Renira1!
Thanks for your interest! The text describing the photo has now been translated into English. It is truly a moving story.

oh how poignant. what a great record. and I'm happy because of the link between Norway and England. (Norway sends an enormous Christmas tree for Trafalgar Square in London - where I live - every year!)

Great memorabilia, beautiful photograph.

Emocionante...

Christiania seems to have a long tradition of slightly odd architecture, including things built outward like this one. This was in my contacts' photos just last week: www.flickr.com/photos/dgbalancesrocks/3179720688/

A "stabbur" is a small building made for storage of food. I believe the "outward" style has something to do with keeping mice and rats out of the building.

I would guess that this "stabbur" is located in an outdoor museum located at Bygdøy in Oslo called Norsk Folkemuseum (Norwegian folk museum). Christiania is an old name of Norways capital Oslo. The museum have, among other things, a collection of old norwegian buildings, and it was founded in 1894. Lú: The Christiania in the picture you are linking to is in Denmark. It's a part of Copenhagen.

Oh well! Carry on :)

This is indeed at the Folkemuseum. I feel a huge urge go there immediately and get a "now" shot from this angle!
