EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the late 19th century, capturing the beauty of Goschenen, Switzerland. The image showcases the magnificent Gotthard railway as it winds its way through this picturesque Swiss town. Taken by renowned photographer Giorgio Sommer in approximately 1880, this sepia-toned print exudes a sense of nostalgia and charm. The rugged alpine landscape serves as a breathtaking backdrop for the imposing bridge that spans across a deep gorge. The sheer magnitude of the mountains surrounding Goschenen is awe-inspiring, emphasizing both the grandeur of nature and human engineering. Sommer's composition skillfully captures every detail: from the rushing river below to the quaint houses nestled against the mountainside. This photograph not only documents an important moment in history but also invites viewers to immerse themselves in a bygone era. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we can't help but imagine what life was like during those times - when steam locomotives chugged along these tracks and travelers marveled at Switzerland's natural wonders. It serves as a reminder of our connection to both past and present; how landscapes change over time while still retaining their timeless allure.
