This anonymous, hand-colored photograph from the early 20th century captures the vibrant streetscape of Södra Hamngatan in Gothenburg, Sweden. The image features a grand, neoclassical building with a towering clock tower, and the bustling street scene with streetcars and pedestrians. The central canal with its bridge adds to the picturesque beauty of the city, making it a valuable document of urban life in early 20th-century Sweden. The image is a fine example of the "photochrom" process, a technique used to add color to black and white photographs in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, enhancing the realism and detail of the scenes.
