EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the pristine winter landscape of Switzerland, a thrilling bobsleigh race unfolds in this photograph from the 1910s. The frozen track, shrouded in a light dusting of snow, stretches out before the determined racers, their faces set in focused intensity as they hurtle down the icy chute. Dressed in heavy winter gear, the five-man teams huddle together in their sleds, each member playing a crucial role in propelling their vehicle to victory. The driver, at the helm, leans forward, muscles tensed, eyes locked on the path ahead. The tension in the air is palpable as the race heats up, with the roar of the crowd in the background adding to the excitement. The crisp, clear mountain air, the crunch of snow underfoot, and the raw power of the bobsleighs make for an unforgettable scene, capturing the spirit of competition and camaraderie in the heart of the Swiss Alps."
