EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of early alpine skiing in the Swiss Alps during the 1900s. The image features two intrepid skiers, identified as Carlo Pellegrini Junior and an unnamed companion, gracefully navigating the snowy slopes. Dressed in bulky yet functional clothing, they don protective hats, goggles, and thick gloves or mittens to shield against the cold. Carlo Pellegrini Junior, a renowned Swiss skiing pioneer, is seen in the foreground, his posture poised and confident as he expertly maneuvers his skis. His companion, dressed similarly, follows closely behind, their ski poles planted firmly in the snow for balance. The snowy landscape stretches out behind them, the towering Alps providing a breathtaking backdrop. The photograph, taken circa 1907, showcases the early days of alpine skiing as a popular winter sport. The skis themselves are long and flat, requiring significant effort and skill to control. The simplicity of their equipment, combined with the rugged terrain and the stark beauty of the mountains, adds to the raw, untamed appeal of the scene. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of skiing and the evolution of winter sports. It serves as a reminder of the thrill and adventure that has drawn people to the slopes for generations, and continues to inspire us today.
