EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving from the Liszt Collection takes us back to the early days of railway construction in Austria. The image showcases "The Arlberg Mountain Railway between Innsbruck and Bludenz, Austria, 1883" capturing various scenes along its route. In the foreground, we see a section of the Arlberg Road and Tunnel near St. Anton. The rugged mountain landscape serves as a dramatic backdrop for this engineering marvel that connected two major cities. Moving further along the track, we glimpse another stretch of the road near Stuben, where travelers would have marveled at the breathtaking views. Continuing our journey through time, we come across yet another segment of the railway near Langen. Here, workers toiled tirelessly to carve tunnels through solid rock, overcoming immense challenges posed by nature herself. One particularly intriguing detail is highlighted in this print: an Italian tunnel-worker at the Arlberg. This individual represents not only one among many who contributed their skills but also symbolizes cultural diversity within this monumental project. With its intricate engravement and illustrative technique typical of Victorian-era artistry, this vintage print transports us into a world long gone by. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination while offering us a glimpse into history's transformative power
