Mer de Glace, Mont Blanc: A Victorian Splendor in the Alps (Mer de Glace, Mont Blanc: Un Splendide Vitrine Victorienne Dans Les Alpes) This photograph, hailing from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to the late 19th century and the romantic allure of the Alps during the Victorian era. The image, titled "Mer de Glace, Mont Blanc," showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Mer de Glace glacier, nestled at the foot of Mont Blanc, Europe's highest peak. The photograph, taken during the Edwardian period, captures the essence of adventure and discovery that defined the era. The scene is set with a horse-drawn sleigh, its passengers bundled up against the cold, making their way towards the glacier. In the foreground, a group of intrepid climbers, dressed in their period attire, prepare for their ascent, their lanterns casting an ethereal glow on the snowy landscape. The Mer de Glace, or "Sea of Ice," was a popular destination for tourists and adventurers alike during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The glacier's unique blue hue and dramatic ice formations drew visitors from all corners of Europe, who sought to experience the thrill of the Alps and the awe-inspiring beauty of nature. This vintage lantern slide, with its rich detail and exquisite tonality, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, a time when the Alps were a symbol of adventure, discovery, and the indomitable human spirit. The image invites us to imagine the stories of those who braved the elements to explore the wonders of Mont Blanc and the Mer de Glace, and to appreciate the enduring allure of the Alps that continues to captivate us today.
