The series of photographs illustrates the ability of speed to compress time and space. The body moves at the same speed as the mode of transportation, while one’s thoughts are already somewhere else. The photos are about how quickly you can exist, at least mentally, somewhere else. They portray a feeling of simultaneousness, that everything is happening now. An exciting cutting edge book.

Despite other interpretations, researcher Bolvig recounts the history of the gorgeous Roskilde church altar and the purchase of same in the 1550’s by Birgitte Gøye and Herluf Trolle for their beloved castle Hillerødsholm at Antwerp’s art market. Once thought to be unique to Denmark, the beautiful, detailed paintings are the result of Dutch industrialized art production. In fact, people would come from all over Europe to purchase and partake in this art production, a new approach to art at the time. The altars were made to be sold and not ordered beforehand. The paintings themselves depict 33 scenes from the life of Christ and present a visual narrative from the New Testament. Gorgeous photographs capture this “ œillustrated Bible“ from the 1500s, while Bolvig’s research is compelling in its reinterpretation of cultural history, art, and art production.

When Axel Svensson moved from his tenement home in Bjuv, Sweden, at the age of eight to ease his family’s financial burden, he began an odyssey that would extend over a quarter-century and thousands of miles. It took him four years working as an indentured servant until he was finally able to make it to America. He traveled the Midwest until he finally married and settled in Ames, Iowa, where he assumed the managership of the local J.C. Penney store. In Ames, he became a community leader and retired from Penney’s at age 50 to devote his time to managing his farm and traveling with his wife until her death.
