35 painted photos of Norway's most popular tourist destinations in the early 20th century
Norway has always been a tidbit for especially sophisticated travelers. In addition to the fact that this tourist destination today is considered a very expensive pleasure, it can also be considered quite exotic: a distant cold country of ancient and terrible Vikings, magnificent glaciers, magnificent fjords, the unique and incomparable nature of these lands.
