EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a haunting scene of devastation - the once majestic Black Eagle Hotel in Grindelwald, Switzerland, reduced to ruins by a fierce fire. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image now resides in a private collection. The hotel's grand architecture is evident even amidst the destruction, with its intricate details and imposing presence still visible. The Black Eagle Hotel was a beloved landmark in Grindelwald, known for its elegance and charm. Its demise due to the ravages of fire sent shockwaves through the community and beyond. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both the fragility of architectural wonders and their enduring allure. Published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on March 13th, 1897, this image captured attention across Europe. It stands as a testament to not only the skill of the English photographer but also his ability to convey emotion through his lens. Now preserved within Bridgeman Images' Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, this photograph allows us to reflect upon history's tragedies while appreciating photography's power to immortalize moments that would otherwise be lost. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of both loss and resilience - reminding us that even from ashes can emerge new beginnings.
