EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Switzerland: Gendarme on the Sonnigwichel, looking towards the Oberalpstock" takes us back to the early 20th century. Captured by Jean Gaberell, a renowned Swiss photographer from 1887-1949, this image showcases a gendarme seated on a rock in the picturesque Swiss mountains. The gendarme gazes towards the majestic Oberalpstock peak, surrounded by breathtaking mountain scenery and valleys. The contrast of black and white adds depth to this timeless photograph, emphasizing the ruggedness of the landscape. This image not only captures the beauty of Switzerland but also highlights mountaineering as a popular sport during that era. It portrays an adventurous spirit as climbers conquer challenging terrains while enjoying nature's wonders. Gaberell's illustration was part of his collection called "Vues Suisses" which aimed to showcase Switzerland's stunning sights through his lens. This particular piece perfectly encapsulates both the sense of awe-inspiring natural beauty and human determination in conquering these heights. As we admire this vintage print, we are transported back in time to witness an era where mountaineering was gaining popularity as a thrilling sport. It serves as a reminder of Switzerland's rich history in climbing and its enduring allure for adventurers seeking new heights.
