Images of Stockholm 1913

Overview

This film moves mostly in the surroundings around the Royal Palace and Strandvägen. The environments are strangely similar compared to how it looks today. The camera is initially placed on Lejonbacken by the castle. It pans to the right over the distinguished Hotell Rydberg and the Royal Opera House. The strolls along Strandvägen are many and the cars few. People stop and contemplate the strange novelty that a man with a movie camera still is. Strömkajen's white archipelago boats in front of the Grand Hotel stand in stark contrast to the toil of the coal carriers at the barges along Strandvägen.
