Sören Gunnarsson: Victor Hasselblad – The Man Behind the Camera Ola Waagen I have created the textsThe life of Victor Hasselblad ((1906 78) became dramatic and successful. Deep rooted conflicts in his formative years played a decisive role in his future. As a youth he sought refuge in nature and photography. With time he became a world traveller and a wealthy industrialist. Just before his passing he sold his camera company and established a foundation with the aim of promoting education and research within the fields of science and photography.
