EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene of bandy being played on the ice in Switzerland during the early 1900s. The players are bundled up in warm winter gear, their breath visible in the cold air as they glide across the frozen surface with skill and precision.
The image exudes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when outdoor sports like bandy were popular pastimes in Europe. The composition is dynamic, with the players engaged in intense competition against the backdrop of snow-covered mountains.
The photographer, Geoffrey Roland Balance, has expertly captured the essence of Swiss culture and tradition in this snapshot from history. It is a reminder of simpler times when people found joy and camaraderie through physical activity outdoors.
This print was originally featured in "Switzerland, The Country and its People," a book written by Clarence Rook and illustrated by Effie Jardine. It serves as a visual representation of Swiss life at the turn of the 20th century, offering viewers a glimpse into a world that is both familiar and foreign.
Overall, this stunning image evokes feelings of warmth and nostalgia while also highlighting the beauty and charm of Switzerland's winter landscape.
