EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1930s, on the Arth-Rigi Railway in Switzerland. The creator of this mesmerizing image is A. G Werthi, featured in "The Wonder Book of Railways" edited by Harry Golding. As we gaze at this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to a time when train travel was not only a means of transportation but also an adventure. The photograph captures the exterior of a passenger train as it winds its way through the majestic mountainside. The railway tracks cut through the rugged terrain, showcasing Switzerland's breathtaking geographical features. In the background, people can be seen enjoying their day amidst nature's splendor. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility and awe-inspiring beauty. It reminds us of Britain's rich railway history and its influence on literature and arts during that era. The Ward Lock & Co. , London-based publishers known for their travel guides and books, published this remarkable piece alongside other captivating stories about railways. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel ourselves inside one of those compartments, eagerly peering out at the stunning landscape passing by. It serves as a reminder that even in our fast-paced world today, there is still something magical about train journeys – connecting us with nature and allowing us to appreciate the wonders around us.
