Norway by Photochrom

A photochrom, in brief, is essentially a photographic print crossed with a lithograph-- to hear the full story, the Library of Congress has an excellent explanation. These were mass-produced as prints well before the development of colour photography. Scenic views for tourists were especially popular, and the Library of Congress has thousands, from diverse countries. Many photochrom tours to come--but today, the beauty of Norway, 1890!
