EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of the Roseg Glacier near Pontresina, Engadine, Switzerland in 1895. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing the essence of this glacier is undeniable. Situated in the Bernina Range in southeastern Switzerland, this glacier stands as a testament to the awe-inspiring power of nature. The monochrome tones add a sense of timelessness to the scene, emphasizing its significance as a geographical feature. The icy landscape stretches across the frame, with mountains towering in the background. The wintry atmosphere evokes a sense of tranquility and solitude that only such remote locations can offer. It's easy to imagine oneself standing there amidst this frozen wonderland. Although people are absent from this particular shot, one can't help but wonder about those who have ventured here before us. This photograph serves as a window into an era long gone - nineteenth-century Switzerland when publishing company George Newnes Ltd captured moments like these for all to enjoy. Waterlow and Sons Ltd played their part by immortalizing this stunning image on paper through their printing expertise. Now preserved by Heritage Images, it allows us to appreciate not only the natural beauty but also how photography has evolved over time. As we gaze upon this vintage print today, we are reminded of both our connection with history and our insignificance within nature's grandeur.
