Images Gone with Time: Photographic Reflections of Slovak Folk Life

This unique book portrays the everyday life of the Slovak village in the middle of our century. The photographs bring to life ways of living and folk customs that have forever vanished into the past.

In Igor Grossmann's Images Gone with Time, starkly beautiful photographs capture the essence of the Slovak village at the moment of encounter between the old and the new, when centuries of tradition beheld the dawn of a new age. The world of the mountain village comes alive in these photographs: the countryside formed by traditional ways of farming, buildings blended into the scenery, and family life in the village in its ordinariness and its bright, festive moments.

These images are revealing, and this vanished world is part of the human record, even if the images are gone with time.

Grossmann's photographs are the land of our memories of home. They are a record of our existence, a guarantee of our survival.
