1912 Vrangfoss Vintage Postcard

1912 Vintage postcard from Telemarken, Norway. In 1912 my great grandfather mailed this back to the US while visiting his birthplace. He immigrated with his folks as an infant.

I found some images here on Flickr ... this house by the lock looks like the one in this photo. Perhaps the modern image was taken from that bridgeway?
