Of Bricks & Light: Fabled Façades
Knud Knudsen (Norway, 1832-1915): “Husum I Laerdal.” Albumen print, 5-1/4″ x 7″ circa 1889.
The delicate gingerbread fret-work of the façade contrasts with the rough textures of the stone wall, the rocky hillside, and the logs of the building to the left.
Knudsen was an outstanding landscape and view photographer whose catalogue included thousands of images.
