Akerselven ved Bentse Bruk. Hvor Thaulow malte. 1900
Håndkolorert dias. Bentse Bruk ved Akerselva, Norges første tresliperi, som kom i drift i 1863. I boken " Norsk landskap og norske menn" forteller Wilse: "På min videre ferd nådde jeg fram til Bentse Bruk ved Akerselven. Jeg så straks fra broen at her måtte det være noen gode motiver å forevige, og derfor fant jeg meg også en nedgang gjennom gjerdet og nedover skråningen. Jo, her var det motiver, en stille flytende elv med gjenspeiling av røde fabrikkbygninger, mens skinnende snø og blålige iskanter dannet en vakker og malerisk ramme om det mørke vannet. Hurtigst mulig ut med apparatet, for dagene er korte i januar på disse breddegrader. Men det varte heller ikke lenge før fine motiver vandret ned i vesken. Da så jeg at det noe nedenfor meg sto en høy herre i ulveskinnspels og malte. Og det var ingen ringere enn Norges store maler Fritz Thaulow. [...] Da sa Thaulow: - Kunne De gjøre meg den tjenesten å fotografere disse strømhvirvlene som De ser her i elven?”

Cans of our water Four soldiers posed beneath a sign which reads, 'Good Water. Water bottle filling point'. Each man has some tin water cans ready for filling. They appear to be from different units.

Living Mary, Nazareth
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "The fountain has various names. It is commonly called Mary's Well, but is known also as Jesus' Spring and Gabriel's Spring. It stands beside the Greek Church, which is called the Church of Gabriel or the Church of the annunciation. The church is modern and its being half under ground gives it an unusual though not unpleasant appearance. The spring is north of the church and the water is conducted past the altar by a conduit to Mary's Well, which is the Fountain of the Virgin here seen in this view." 1910: Fotograf: okänd, OSU Special Collections & Archives (no known copyright restrictions)
