EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of elegance and beauty in a bygone era. The subject, Phil Taylor, is seen gracefully gliding across the ice at the Grand Hotel in St Moritz. This mesmerizing image was taken by a European photographer during the 19th century, showcasing both the historical significance and artistic talent of that time. The photograph itself holds a deeper meaning as it served as an illustration for "The Beauty of Skating" by Manfred Curry, published in John Miles' book in 1935. It perfectly encapsulates the artistry and skill involved in figure skating, with Taylor's fluid movements symbolizing grace personified. As we gaze upon this stunning image, we are transported back to a winter wonderland where sports intertwine with dance. The skater's performance exudes not only athleticism but also an undeniable sense of poise and charm. The grandeur of St Moritz serves as an exquisite backdrop to this scene, further enhancing its allure. The historic Grand Hotel adds to the overall ambiance, evoking images of opulence and sophistication. In this single frame frozen in time, we witness a beautiful fusion between sport and artistry – where choreography meets ice – creating a visual masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences even today.
