This photograph, taken in the renowned Swiss ski resort of St. Moritz in 1927, showcases the elegant and sophisticated scene of riders taking a break at a quaint café. The riders, dressed in fashionable riding habits, exude an air of affluence and refinement, as they pause from their horseback excursions amidst the picturesque Alpine landscape. The backdrop of this timeless moment is the exclusive and fashionable town of St. Moritz, renowned for its high society clientele and luxurious amenities. The presence of the Drecoll branch in the photograph serves as a testament to the town's elite status, as Drecoll was a well-known and esteemed fashion designer of the time. The image captures the essence of the apres-ski culture that was prevalent in St. Moritz during the 1920s. The riders, having enjoyed a day of skiing and horseback riding in the pristine snow, gather at the café for a warm respite, savoring the ambiance and camaraderie of the town's elite society. The photograph is a stunning representation of the opulence and charm of St. Moritz during the Jazz Age, offering a glimpse into the luxurious and fashionable world of the Swiss Alps' most exclusive resort town.
