EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by George Pickow, we are transported back to the Swiss Alps in 1955, where a Saint Bernard is learning the invaluable skill of sniffing out people buried under the snow. This remarkable achievement takes place at the renowned Hospice of Saint Bernard, where these famous dogs have honed their rescue abilities for centuries. The image captures the determination and intelligence of these incredible animals as they catch the scent of life more than four feet below the surface. With their keen sense of smell and unwavering loyalty, Saint Bernards have become synonymous with mountain rescues. The snowy landscape serves as a stark backdrop to highlight both the beauty and harshness of nature's elements. The horizontal format emphasizes the vastness of this breathtaking mountain range while emphasizing that this heroic feat is part of an ongoing legacy. As we gaze upon this historic moment frozen in time, we cannot help but feel admiration for these noble creatures who dedicate themselves to saving lives. Their training and commitment remind us that even our furry companions can achieve extraordinary things when given proper guidance and love. This stunning photograph not only celebrates an iconic breed but also pays homage to all those involved in search and rescue missions around the world. It serves as a reminder that sometimes it takes a special bond between human and animal to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges – proving once again that true heroes come in all shapes, sizes, and species.
