EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning vintage lantern slide captures the breathtaking beauty of Chamonix and Mont Blanc during the late 19th century Victorian period. The image transports us back in time to a bygone era when travelers would embark on grand adventures to explore the majestic peaks of the French Alps.
The photograph showcases the snow-capped mountains towering over the charming town of Chamonix, with its quaint buildings nestled amidst lush greenery. The intricate details captured in this print offer a glimpse into life in this picturesque alpine region during a time when horse-drawn carriages and traditional attire were commonplace.
As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we can almost feel the crisp mountain air and hear the faint sound of church bells echoing through the valley. It is as if we are standing alongside early explorers who marveled at the awe-inspiring sight of Mont Blanc, Europe's highest peak.
The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection has preserved this piece of history for us to admire, allowing us to appreciate both the natural beauty of Chamonix and Mont Blanc and the artistry involved in capturing it on film. This vintage lantern slide serves as a reminder of a simpler time when travel was an adventure filled with wonder and discovery.
