EDITORS COMMENTS
This antique engraving from the 19th century transports us back to a snowy day in Lison, France. The image, originally featured in the Petit Journal on March 5,1892, captures a train halted by an unexpected snowstorm. As we gaze at this vertical print, we are reminded of the power and unpredictability of winter weather. The scene depicts a private collection piece that has been carefully preserved over time. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment frozen in time. The unknown artist skillfully portrays the sheer force of nature as it blankets the landscape with layers of white. Intriguingly, this engraving offers us a glimpse into the past when railways were essential for transportation. We can only imagine how passengers must have felt as their journey came to an abrupt halt amidst swirling snowflakes and icy winds. As we admire this remarkable piece by Santiago Ortega, we are transported not only through space but also through time. It serves as a reminder of our human resilience in overcoming challenges posed by Mother Nature herself. This enchanting print is more than just an artwork; it is a window into history - reminding us that even during times long gone, people faced similar obstacles and found ways to persevere. Let it inspire you to appreciate both the beauty and strength found within these fleeting moments captured forever on paper.
