EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Throwing the Stone in Appenzell" transports us back to the 19th century, capturing a remarkable display of human strength and skill. The image showcases a moment frozen in time, as an athlete prepares to hurl a stone with incredible force. The scene is set in Appenzell, Switzerland, known for its traditional sports and feats of physical prowess. This engraving was created as an illustration for the book "Wonders of Bodily Strength and Skill" by Guillaume Depping and Charles Russell, published in 1872. It serves as a testament to the enduring fascination with extraordinary displays of athletic ability. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this print. The tension on the athlete's face reflects his determination while his muscular physique hints at years of dedicated training. The stone itself appears weighty yet perfectly balanced within his grasp. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the limitless potential that lies within our own bodies. It celebrates not only physical strength but also the power of discipline and perseverance required to achieve such remarkable feats. As we gaze upon this engraving from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we can't help but be inspired by the indomitable spirit captured within it – reminding us that through dedication and skill, humans have always been capable of achieving greatness.
