EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the winter of 1914 in the majestic Alps. The front cover illustration from Le Petit Journal depicts a truly heroic scene - an Alpine postman coming to the rescue of a stranded traveler trapped in deep snow. The image showcases the sheer determination and bravery of this postman as he battles against the elements. Clad in his uniform and kepi hat, he fearlessly navigates through treacherous mountain terrain, carrying a walking stick that aids him on his mission. His gloved hands firmly grip onto the traveler's arm, providing much-needed support and hope. The snowy landscape surrounding them is both breathtakingly beautiful and perilously cold. The rocky mountains serve as a reminder of nature's unforgiving power, while footprints left behind by previous adventurers tell tales of their own struggles. This illustration captures not only a moment frozen in time but also embodies qualities such as heroism and selflessness. It reminds us that even amidst harsh conditions, there are individuals who go above and beyond to help others in need. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we cannot help but feel inspired by these unsung heroes who risk their lives for strangers. Their acts remind us that compassion knows no boundaries - not even those set by towering mountains or freezing temperatures.
