Mist clings to snow-capped peaks above the mirror-still waters of the Sognefjord in this hauntingly beautiful monochrome real-photograph postcard of Balholm, Norway — a tiny village on the Mundal arm of Europe's longest and deepest fjord, beloved by Kaiser Wilhelm II, who moored his imperial yacht here each summer in the early 1900s. A rustic log-and-sod hut nestles behind a traditional Norwegian woven-wood fence in the middle distance, birch and pine frame the scene on either side, and the scale of the landscape — alpine wall meeting glassy water — conveys the sublime Nordic grandeur that drew aristocratic tourists and Romantic-era painters alike. This undivided- or early divided-back card in sepia-toned photographic printing is unused, clean, and evocative of Norway's Edwardian golden age of fjord tourism.
