EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1883, capturing a remarkable feat of engineering in Switzerland. The image showcases the mountain railroad line between Montreux and Glion, which at that time held the prestigious title of being the steepest railway in the world. The engraving beautifully depicts an exterior view of this awe-inspiring railway, nestled amidst the breathtaking Swiss Alps. Passengers can be seen eagerly boarding the train with their luggage, ready to embark on a thrilling journey through these majestic mountains. The late 19th-century fashion worn by these travelers adds a touch of nostalgia to this timeless scene. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we are reminded of both human ingenuity and our deep connection with nature. This railway not only symbolizes progress and innovation but also serves as a testament to mankind's determination to conquer even the most challenging terrains. Granger Art on Demand has expertly preserved this piece from their collection, allowing us to appreciate its beauty today. Let yourself be transported back in time as you contemplate this extraordinary moment captured forever within this exquisite print.
