EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured lantern slide presents a breathtaking view of Lucerne, Switzerland, with the majestic Mount Pilatus towering in the background. Mount Pilatus, a prominent peak in the Alps, holds a rich history steeped in legend and myth. According to local lore, Pontius Pilate, the Roman prefect who sentenced Jesus Christ to be crucified, was buried on this mountain after his death. In late medieval times, an intriguing legend emerged that a dragon resided on Mount Pilatus, adding to the mystique and allure of this natural wonder. The vibrant colours of this slide, captured in the 1890s, offer a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era when such stories were deeply rooted in the collective consciousness of the people. The serene waters of Lake Lucerne reflect the stunning landscape, making for a truly mesmerizing image. This lantern slide, number 14 of Box 181, titled 'Swiss No.1', is a testament to the captivating beauty and rich history of Switzerland during the late 19th century.
