EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured lantern slide, titled "Swiss No.1," showcases an iconic view of the Basel Minster, a heritage site of national significance in Switzerland. The Minster, built between the 11th and 16th centuries, is a remarkable blend of Romanesque and Gothic architectural styles. Originally a Catholic cathedral, it played a pivotal role in Swiss history, hosting significant events such as the Pope's election and the destruction of religious paintings during the Reformation. The Basel Minster, depicted in this late 19th-century coloured lantern slide, stands proudly against the backdrop of the Swiss Alps. Its intricate design, with towering spires and ornate details, is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Switzerland. The Minster's history is as complex as its architecture, having undergone numerous transformations throughout the centuries. This slide, part of Box 181, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era when colour lantern slides were a popular means of visual storytelling. The 1890s, the estimated date of this slide, was a time of great innovation and exploration, and this slide serves as a reminder of the fascination people had with the beauty and history of Switzerland during that period.
