EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, specifically to the Axenstrasse near Fluelen, Switzerland in 1895. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their work beautifully captures the engineering marvel that is the Axenstrasse road. Constructed by tunneling through solid rock and completed in 1865, this road showcases human ingenuity and determination. It winds its way through a breathtaking landscape of mountains and natural arches, with Lake Lucerne shimmering in the distance. The monochrome tones add a timeless quality to this scene from yesteryears. The Axenstrasse stands as a testament to Swiss craftsmanship and innovation. Its construction opened up new possibilities for travel and trade between regions previously isolated by rugged terrain. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only the physical beauty of this location but also its historical significance. Preserved within the pages of "Round the World in Pictures and Photographs: From London Bridge to Charing Cross via Yokohama and Chicago" published by George Newnes Ltd in London during 1895, it serves as an invaluable record of a bygone era. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time; our eyes tracing every curve of the road carved into stone while contemplating how humans have shaped their environment throughout history.
