A Mountain Guide, Grindelwald, Switzerland, Victorian Period This vintage photograph, hailing from the Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the late 19th century in the picturesque village of Grindelwald, Switzerland. The image showcases a dedicated mountain guide, clad in traditional attire, expertly navigating the rugged terrain of the Swiss Alps with a group of intrepid travelers. The guide, with a lantern in hand, leads the way up the snow-covered mountain path, his sturdy boots leaving distinct footprints in the fresh snow. The travelers, dressed in Victorian and Edwardian era clothing, follow closely behind, their faces filled with a mix of excitement and trepidation. The grandeur of the mountains looms in the background, with their snow-capped peaks piercing the clear blue sky. The lantern, a vital tool for the mountain guide, illuminates the path ahead, providing a sense of security and guidance for the group. The lantern's warm glow contrasts beautifully with the icy surroundings, adding a touch of warmth and comfort to the scene. This photograph captures the essence of the grand mountain tours that were popular during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The thrill of adventure, the allure of the unknown, and the breathtaking beauty of the Swiss Alps drew travelers from all corners of the world. This image serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of mountain climbing and the indomitable spirit of those who dared to explore the great outdoors.
