I recently read a book with pictures with first photographs in Sweden dating back to early 1840s. Right after the daguerreotypes became known, they had several artists at the time turning into photographers with that technology located at different locations in Sweden. Pretty cool history.
The title is incorrect. These are absolutely not the oldest known photographies in Sweden. The old ones are from the 1840’s and 1850’s and there are many of those. The oldest preserved photo in the world is from 1828. By 1900 photography was relatively common.
@Jonsson474 As far as I can see every statement in your post above is correct. The oldest existing printed photo in the world is in France and is thought to be from 1826, but that date is not known exactly. By about 1860 the German photographer Jaeger was an established portrait photographer in Stockholm. He was also busy with panoramas, stereoscope and topographical photography. In 1865 he became the Royal Court Photographer and attended and photographed the General Industrial Exposition in Stockholm in 1866. With all these activities he will have taken and published a lot of photographs before 1870. There is a photo in the National Museum taken in the mid 1840s. The oldest picture in the video is 1871. I should add I did enjoy the video.
Tänk vad dessa människor som byggt vårt vackra land hade känt om de vaknade ur sina gravar och såg dagens Sverige, sorgligt. Fina bilder, grymt jobbat!
Beautiful picture selection and some nice work there! However, regarding the colours selected, the wooden facades of houses in the countryside would have been painted red and the Sami people's clothing were predominately blue tinted with decorations in red and white, not grey as some of the pics.
2018 I was in Sweden. The landscape is often the same, he Humans are sometimes Grandchilds and sometimes from many other parts of the baltic area. But you can see, the Love for family and friends seems to remain always the same. Thats, why we humans should more think about the sense of life and less about the daily trouble within our "own" generation. Thx for the editing work. It brings generations nearer together 🙂
It's fascinating to see so many pictures from Frinnaryd, as I grew up in those parts. I even went to school there as a small child. Today I live in Tranås (mentioned in one of the picture, spelled Tranas).
The "bar in Grand Hotel 1903" is really Hotell Rydberg and the man in moustache behind the bar is the legendary bartender Gustafsson. His batting skill var famous. When the likewise legendary bar and the hotel closed 30th of September 1914 there was a bank build on its place. The bank is gone and the govemnmet made it into an office. Alas!
I am Swedish and I have many family photographs from the 1880’s and onwards. The selection of pictures are wonderful, albeit slightly random. Many are from an obscure place called Frinnaryd. I had to look it up since I had never heard of it. It is a small place in Jönköpings municipal in the region of Småland (where my paternal grandmother came from). In Wikipedia it says that today there are 228 inhabitants in Frinnaryd. In 1950 there were 424. So not a big place. Wikipedia also tills me that Greta Garbos father came from Frinnaryd. Greta Garbo was a very famous Hollywood star in the 1920’s and 1930’s. She was barn in Stockholm.

How I wish that my Swedish mother ( fom Stockholm) were still alive so that we could watch these magnificently colored photographs together ... This is very moving.
@@Saba-lz2qg The Romans drove on the left because of the wagons. The driver was on the right hand side, pretty much the same when you see the old westerns with the Stagecoach he will be on the right hand side because that’s the way it was done and you drive on the left?
I live in Sweden, and liked the video, but you rather missed an opportunity to make the visit to the past more immersive. None of the admittedly nice music fit the place or the period. The first tune was North American, the next was French, and the rest jazz from the 1950s and 60s. Please give a thought to the music tradition too. Best wishes and thanks for these photos.👍🍻
It has? How come Sweden literally ranks in the top 10 when it comes to everything related to quality of life? Things are better now than 35 years ago...?
@@user-lv6rn9cf8m It really has. There's no social cohesion or trust anymore. There are so many bombings and drug shoot outs. Inflation-adjusted housing prices are 5 times as high as 35 years ago (that's *inflation adjusted*; nominal prices are way worse). If you want to live away from the terribleness you have to go into debt to your eye balls. The trains don't work; there's always people stealing copper wires, there's always transformer fires and broken track interchanges and delays. You used to be able to trust the train time tables, now you can't even trust that you'll arrive at your destination without hours long delays and replacement busses. Cities are scheeming how to get rid of and make cars less useful without fixing the trains to make it work. A bunch of russian supported tits pretending to be environmentalists are proud to have dismantled many nuclear reactors and made the electrical grid too unreliable and expensive. 35 years ago there was at least hope. Things were improving. Today the lunatics run the asylum.
Many thanks for the upload. I always skip the debate on which is the oldest or newest of any image, it is a waste of time. And as time goes by we live our lives as the people in these pictures did not knowing that they would be featured in this format in a future where the old world of theirs would be a distant memory in the minds of the very old. How little people change over time. Only the surronds change and the mindset of people stays the same. It is still the same old story, a fight for love and glory, as time goes by....
The picture in 05:27 is from Ammarnäs, Gustaf von Düben In the book Lappland och lapparna The book came out in 1877 and the picture was taken of Lotten von Düben. They were 3 weeks in Sorsele and they visit Ammarnäs 9 july and people meet up for wedding, baptism and commune.

I live quite close to Frinnaryd and it would be interesting to know why there are so many photos in here that comes from a seemingly random village in the middle of nowhere.
The colouring is slightly off, most noticeable in the second picture where they're standing on brown mud/sand (typical old road in Sweden), it's shown as green when it should be light grey/brown.
Old photos and films are nice to look at. Even if they illustrate something fictional, they still reflect the technology of that time. What is visible between scratches, dust and spots is what was in front of the lens. "... Restored, Enhanced, and Colorized ..." is still enjoyable but I am now looking at someone's subjective interpretation of how the world looked like. Especially the colors in a colorized b/w photo or film is a product of modern imagination.
There are still Sami people, many assimilated/mixed and some who try to hold on to what remains of the culture. Sami is one indigenous group to Sweden , but they are not the first nor predate the majority indo-european people. Indo-european settled where you can farm, Sami moved in later to the region suitable for nomad life. There were other hunter gatherers before Sami, there were other farmers before indo-european. Swedish people had been controlling Sami region for a long time but it was around the time of these photos, during industrialization and after, Swedish people came to dominate the north.
The picture from Grand hotel (Time:2:58), is not correct. It is a picture from ”the Rydbergs bar” at Gustav Adolf square in Stockholm, just before the entire building was demolished and replaced by the Todays building. Rydbergs bar was a restaurant for well born people.
Usually Swedes migrated before this time period and many of the people in these photos are kind of rich or poor sami, these groups did not end up migrating. However it was pretty common to migrate from the countryside in Sweden so I give you that.
@@savagecub Indeed at least according to my knowledge. But then again I only know of rumours of one person in my family that has migrated. My granny's cousin had a motel in Florida in the 80's or so I remember after seeing some postcards from him as a child. 😉
"Beautiful woman fetching water in the source, 1912, Lund" - No, this cant be Lund. The very typical red house is from a place far more north thab Lund.

Why not some Swedish music…Otherwise, excellent.
It's the same with all American produce - if it doesn't wear sunglasses, they can't concieve. It's the Empire Syndrome.
Believe it or not the Swedes used to drive on the left hand side this only changed in September 1967, when they then changed to right-hand.
You’re right. Brits should try driving on the right side too.

Their horses were huge!
Are these colored with photoshops auto generate or an external, online auto generate service?
When Sweden was homogenous and safe...
(excluding Sami(origin Mongolia/East Asia) and Jews(origin Levant/Middle East))
The colouring is slightly off, most noticeable in the second picture where they're standing on brown mud/sand (typical old road in Sweden), it's shown as green when it should be light grey/brown.
Exquisite pictures from the time when Sweden went from poverty to prosperity.
Very fun to watch😮. Sad though that everyone we see is dead and buried.😢
not a sneaker in sight..no jeans..oh dear...peak of our civilization was 1906
And today? What a fate!
What colour clothes would you like to wear? We have blue, dark blue, navy blue, royal blue, midnight blue...
Great pics, though.
