Antique & Vintage Postcards

A man in top hat and blue jacket escorts a woman in the red-bodiced Fana bunad — traditional costume of the district south of Bergen — in this illustration by Norwegian artist Bjarne Damsleth, best known for designing Norway's iconic WWII resistance posters. It's the companion piece to Damsleth's Hallingdal bunad card in the same N.W. Damm & Søn series, together forming a small but sought-after pair for collectors of Norwegian folk costume art.
