Schlittschuhlauf / Skating (colour litho)

8666248 Schlittschuhlauf / Skating (colour litho) by Christophe (Colomb, Georges) (1856-1945); Private Collection; (add.info.: Schlittschuhlauf. Der Eislauf ist den nordischen Volkern seit alters bekannt und wohl der erste auch von Frauen geubte Wintersport; denn Schlittenfahren war fruher, wo statt des modernen Kameradschaftsgeistes Galanterie alles beherrschte, fur sie noch keine eigentlich sportliche Betatigung. Auch Hochstleistungen und Austragen von Meisterschaften spielten vor 130 Jahren noch keine Rolle. Translation: Skating. Ice skating has been known to the Nordic people since ancient times and was probably the first winter sport practiced by women; for tobogganing used to be, when gallantry ruled everything instead of the modern spirit of camaraderie, for them it wasn't really a sporting activity. 130 years ago, top performances and holding championships did not play a role either.
