EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving captures the diligence of European tourists as they arrive at the Col du Mont Cenis in 1850, a pivotal moment in travel history. The scene depicts a stagecoach pulled by horses making its way through the picturesque mountain scenery linking France to Italy before the construction of the Frejus Passage. The travelers are bundled up against the winter chill, their faces filled with anticipation and wonder as they embark on this adventurous journey. This image is not just a snapshot of a historical moment but also a testament to human resilience and determination. Despite facing harsh conditions and rugged terrain, these tourists show unwavering diligence in their pursuit of exploration and discovery. The vibrant colors used in the engraving bring to life the excitement and energy of this bustling street scene, highlighting the hustle and bustle of early tourism in Europe. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to an era when travel was not just about reaching a destination but about embracing new experiences and forging connections with different cultures. It serves as a reminder that no matter how far technology advances or how much our world changes, the spirit of adventure will always remain alive within us.
