EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting photograph of Kienthal and the Alpine Hut in the Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland, dating between approximately 1890 and 1900. The image captures the picturesque beauty of the Swiss Alps during the late 19th century, a time when tourism was beginning to flourish in the area. The quaint Alpine Hut, nestled among the rugged mountains, stands as a beacon of warmth and hospitality for weary travelers. Its wooden exterior, adorned with colorful flowers and traditional decorations, invites visitors to rest and enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The village of Kienthal, located at the foot of the mountains, is a charming and nostalgic scene of rural life in the late 1800s. The quaint houses, with their sloping roofs and whitewashed walls, are surrounded by lush greenery and the crystal-clear waters of a nearby lake. This photograph, with its rich colors and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the past and transports us to a time when life moved at a slower pace. The image is a testament to the enduring beauty of the Swiss Alps and the lasting appeal of the simple pleasures of rural life. The photograph is a coloured photochrom print, a popular method of producing color photographs during the late 1800s and early 1900s. The process involved creating a series of color filters and overlays to produce a final image with vibrant and detailed colors. This print is a rare and valuable piece of historical documentation, offering a unique perspective on life in the Bernese Oberland region during the late 19th century.
