Traveling by train around Lake Baikal.

in #history6 years ago (edited)

The world's largest lake Baikal is considered to be the pearl of Siberia. Completely commissioned the Circum-Baikal railway was in 1904 during the Russo-Japanese War. Passenger and freight trains moved on rails laid along the shores of this greatest lake in the world.

Of course, photographers could not miss such beautiful landscapes. There are many photographic postcards of the time from the Baikal Lake in the archives.

On those postcards that I have in the archive shows that the photographers not only took pictures of landscapes, but also carefully and diligently they were painted by hand.
