10 European Landscapes Inspired by Grimm’s Fairy Tales

By FizX on March 12, 2015@fizx

“Brothers Grimm’s Wanderings” by Kilian Schönberger is the second part of a photo project that started with Brothers Grimm’s Homeland. These are some glorious views of europe, some really mesmerizing sceneries and they are very real. What we like to ask you is, If you recognize any of these places and landmarks do comment their names below in the comments section. We like to tag all pictures with the name of the country and the exact places they are in.

On Behance, Schönberger adds:

“The photos are inspired by the old fairtytales written by the Brothers Grimm. Therefore I’m searching places throughout Central Europe that echo the mood of those old stories. I think there is a deep longing for tranquil naturalness among people in our technology-driven environment. Therefore I don’t want to show just portrayals of natural scenes – I want to create visually accessible places where the visitor can virtually put his mind at rest and make up his own stories. Possibly this is the real benefit of my work: Resting places for the eyes in a visually overstimulated world.”

Kinder- und Hausmärchen (English: Grimm’s Fairy Tales) is a collection of German fairy tales first published in 1812 by the Grimm brothers, Jacob and Wilhelm. You can see the entire project on Behance: part 1, part 2.
