The book Observatören by photographic artist Emanuel Cederqvist depicts Sarek National Park and the remaining traces of a man working as an observer at a weather station there before disappearing during a snowstorm in 1917.

All photos are in grayscale and portrait format, which determined the dimensions of the book. The book begins with a photo part that is completely separated from text. The text part at the end of the book where you can read more about the expedition is also separated considering choice of paper.

A metallic foil stamped red cross on the lower left of the front indicates the place where the observer went missing.
