This print titled "Brig on the Rhone, Bernese Alps, Switzerland, 1819" takes us back to a picturesque moment in time. Created by the Swiss School in the 19th century, this colour lithograph showcases the breathtaking beauty of Brig, an Alpine town nestled near the Italian border. The image captures a scene that seems straight out of a fairytale. The towering Bernese Alps serve as an awe-inspiring backdrop for this charming town. A sturdy bridge gracefully spans over the glistening Rhone River, connecting both sides of this idyllic landscape. Intricate architecture can be seen throughout Brig's buildings and churches, showcasing its rich history and cultural heritage. The presence of cattle and livestock reminds us of the region's agricultural roots while adding life to this serene countryside setting. The snow-capped mountains further enhance the majesty of this alpine paradise.
