The annual press photography competition – known as ‘Årets Bild’ – grew out of tradition that began in the 1940s. Each member of the Swedish Press Photographers Club (Pressfotograferna’s Klubb) brought a photograph to their Christmas dinner. Over tea and biscuits the members voted for their favourite image.
