This print captures the grandeur of the Innsbruck Olympics' Opening Ceremony in 1976. The image showcases a breathtaking view of the two Olympic cauldrons at Bergiselschanze, located in the picturesque city of Innsbruck, Austria. These symbolic flames were ignited to mark the commencement of the Winter Games, and their significance is heightened by Innsbruck's previous hosting of the event in 1964. The photograph beautifully encapsulates both history and tradition as it transports us back to that momentous day on February 4th, 1976.
