EDITORS COMMENTS
Wassen, St. Gotthard Railway, Switzerland: A Journey Back in Time (ca. 1890-1900) Step back in time with this image of Wassen, a quaint Swiss village nestled at the foot of the Alps. The photograph, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, showcases the picturesque village and the historic St. Gotthard Railway that winds its way through the mountains. The St. Gotthard Railway, a marvel of engineering and innovation during the 19th century, is prominently featured in the image. The railway, which opened in 1882, revolutionized travel between northern and southern Europe by providing a faster and more reliable alternative to the arduous and dangerous mountain passes. The railway's tunnels, including the famous Oberalp Tunnel, are visible in the background, adding to the sense of wonder and adventure. The village of Wassen, with its colorful houses and charming architecture, is a stark contrast to the rugged terrain of the mountains. The image, which is likely a photochrom print, adds to the nostalgic feel of the scene. Photochrom prints were popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries and were produced by hand-coloring photographs using a complex process. This image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when travel was an adventure and the world seemed a little bit smaller. The historical significance of the St. Gotthard Railway and the beauty of the Swiss Alps are captured in this stunning photograph, making it a must-have for any collection of historical or travel-themed images.
