Photography was just about twenty years old when a pharmacist at Bártfa gave up his profiting chemist's shop to take up the then difficult "picture writing", which involved a lot of trouble that time. Károly Divald and his three sons, in the same carreer, operated one of the most famous photo art galleries in Hungary and many generations in Hungary learnt about the landscape and recreation sites of the High-Tatras from his photographs and later from their greeting cards produced by them. The studies in the book, apart from reviewing the works of the Divald photographer dinasty, acquaint the reader with the history of photo reproduction as well as Tatra baths and the cultural history of Tatra tourism. The text is completed by 136 photo illustrations in colour.
