Vintage Photos: Hot Day in Hvetlanda

I happened to find this old stereo-photograph in a antique store today. On the back it reads "Victorins hus, -torget, -Hvetlanda." (Victorins house, -the square, -Hvetlanda).
It looks like that day - I guess in the beginning of the previous century - was a hot day. Not a day for bandy.

Illustration/Vintage Photographs: Diableries

So you thought Viewmaster was first? Well, think again!






"Diableries are wonderful examples of the fascination for death in 19th Century photography and made with a lot of imagination and humor. Death in photography is seen in many different ways but here we see the subject in a less serious interpretation."
