EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time in Switzerland, specifically in the Canton of Bern at Kornhausplatz. The focal point of the image is the striking fountain of the Ogre, dating back to 1895. The sculpture depicts an ogre beating a little boy while holding other children's left hands, creating a scene that is both intriguing and slightly unsettling.
The surrounding area showcases commerce in the form of the restaurant Schafer, adding a touch of modernity to this historic setting. The architecture of the building behind the fountain provides a glimpse into life in late nineteenth-century Europe.
The photographer has expertly captured this cityscape, offering viewers a window into Swiss culture and history. From street views to architectural details, every element within the frame tells a story about life in this bustling European city.
As we gaze upon this image from over a century ago, we are reminded of how much has changed yet also how some aspects of society remain constant. It serves as a reminder of our shared human experience across time and place, making it not just a photograph but also a piece of art that transcends its physical form.
