Poster with a historical photograph from Trondheim.

A scene from a busy street in the city. A bus on the Selbu route is driving forward. In the houses along the street you can see shops such as Guldsmed Ola Dahlsveen, Söstrene Eide, Evensen, Jens Hoff. The insurance company Norske Alliance is seen with a large advertising sign on a roof.

A picture by photographer Kristoffersson who visited the city in 1949 and we now have a charming series of pictures from Trondheim.

The image captures a pulsating moment in one of Trondheim's central streets, where life is returning to normal after the Second World War. The street is full of activity, and reflects the town in a phase of reconstruction and everyday routines. Public transport was an important part of the town's infrastructure and daily life, especially at a time when private cars were not as common. the picture gives an insight into the commercial side of Trondheim at this time. The stores represent various aspects of consumer life; from jewelers to fashion and other goods, and shows a diversity of trade and services. This picture gives an insight into how Trondheim functioned as a commercial and social hub, where local trade and transport were central to the day-to-day functioning of society. It also shows how advertising and insurance were part of everyday life, which reflects an economic upswing and modernization.
