Sensational pictures never before published by Norways first paparazzi, Carl Størmer in 1893

Carl Størmer Oslo pictures #87, originally uploaded by carlstormer.

I have just uploaded the first of several batches of pictures taken by my great grandfather, Carl Størmer.  The pictures were taken between 1893-96 in Oslo, Norway.  The picture here is taken outside the royal castle, and you can see the photographers cast his shadow on the objects of his hidden lense. The rest of the pictures can be seen on Flickr.  Notice that I have included my great grandfathers notes which makes it possible to identify all the people in the pictures by name (and in many cases profession). 

Check out this picture of Henrik Ibsen -- part of the same series.
