Winter at Les Avants - A Glimpse into Swiss Winter Traditions
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of a winter scene in Les Avants, Switzerland. The engraving by Henry Edward Tidmarsh takes us back to a time when Lake Geneva was frozen and locals engaged in their favorite sport - sliding timber down icy slopes. The image showcases the beauty of winter with icicles hanging from rooftops and snow-covered landscapes. In the foreground, we witness men loading a timber sled, preparing for an adventurous drive through the snowy terrain. Sledging was not only a means of transport but also a thrilling race between competitors. Les Avants' residents relied heavily on these timber sledges for various purposes such as transporting firewood or farm equipment like threshing machines. This picturesque village nestled amidst mountains became synonymous with agricultural life during winters. The intricacies of this winter scene are brought to life through Tidmarsh's attention to detail, capturing every hitch and coupling necessary for safe transportation. The presence of Swissmen dressed in traditional attire adds authenticity to this European setting. As we admire this enchanting print, it transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the significance of winter traditions in Les Avants. It serves as a reminder that even amidst freezing temperatures and heavy snowfall, communities found joy and excitement through their unique sporting events and reliance on age-old modes of transport.
