Comparing images, some taken more than a century ago,
of Fourmilab's home in Switzerland with contemporary
photos from the same viewpoints provides a transtemporal
perspective of the evolution of a rural village in Western
Switzerland. You can start with
the
introduction to the project, embark upon a
walking tour
of the village, or pick a viewpoint from the
graphical index
based on a map of the village. Those interested in embarking
upon such a project themselves may wish to read the tips on
the craft of
“then and now” photography gleaned during the
production of these pages.
