EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts The Vöring Foss, or Voringfossen, a breathtaking waterfall located on the Hardanger Fjord in Norway. The image, created by M. Jackson in 1858, was first published in the esteemed British newspaper, Illustrated London News. At the time, traveling to Norway was an adventurous undertaking, with a steamer leaving only twice a week for Gothenburg and Christiania. The journey was long and rough, but the rewards were worth the effort. The Vöring Foss, standing at an impressive height of 900 feet, is a testament to the natural beauty and grandeur of Norway's landscapes. The waterfall cascades down the cliffside, creating a mesmerizing display of spray and white foam. The rocks at the base of the falls are a jumbled mass of texture and form, adding to the waterfall's allure. This print serves as a window into the past, offering a glimpse into the geographical wonders that captivated travelers during the 19th century. It is a reminder of the power and majesty of nature, and the desire to explore and document the world around us. The Vöring Foss remains a popular tourist attraction today, drawing visitors from around the world who seek to experience its raw, untamed beauty firsthand.
