EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Lucerne. The image showcases the iconic old bridge, gracefully stretching across the tranquil waters, while a majestic watchtower stands tall in the background. Taken by an anonymous European photographer during the 19th century, this snapshot captures the essence of history and charm that Lucerne exudes. The aged architecture of both the bridge and watchtower tells tales of a bygone era, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder. The photograph was later featured as an illustration in "The Outline of the World To-Day" edited by Sir Harry Johnston and Dr L Haden Guest around 1920. Its inclusion in this publication speaks to its significance as a representation of Lucerne's rich cultural heritage. Displayed within a private collection, this rare find offers viewers a glimpse into early twentieth-century Switzerland. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of Lucerne's historical importance but also its enduring beauty. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary moment for us to appreciate today. Let it serve as a reminder that even amidst our fast-paced modern world, there is immense value in cherishing our past and embracing the stories embedded within these timeless works of art.
