Window to the Past
Categories: Photo project
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/window-to-the-past.htmlThe Hungarian artist and photographer Kerenyi Zoltan used images from the Fortepan website, which collects amateur photographs taken from the 1900s to the 1990s, in his Window to the Past series. Zoltan superimposed them on photographs of those very places taken by himself.
Zolton's intriguing series compares architecture, fashion, and technology through black-and-white photographs from the archives carefully tailored to contemporary backgrounds. We had a chance to see that the seats in the modern stadium were once filled with people from past generations, the restored buildings once looked much worse, and there were not always protective fences near the tracks. In the end, this selection shows exactly what changes have taken place with the streets, parks and houses that we walk on and in which we live to this day.
