EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "The Bergschrund on the Dent Blanche in 1865, from The Ascent of the Matterhorn" takes us back to a momentous chapter in mountaineering history. Engraved by Edward Whymper and published in the 1860s-80s, this image depicts a scene filled with both awe-inspiring beauty and heart-pounding danger. In this frozen landscape of challenge and struggle, we witness a group of pioneering climbers defying all odds as they navigate their way through treacherous terrain. Icicles hang precariously above them, serving as reminders of the ever-present peril that accompanies such daring expeditions. As our gaze follows their path along the glacier-covered mountain slopes, we can't help but feel a sense of vertigo ourselves. The sheer precipice and deep crevasse below evoke feelings of both admiration for these brave mountaineers' achievements and an understanding of the immense dangers they faced. It is important to note that this ascent was not without tragedy. Whymper himself describes how four members out of his party of seven lost their lives during the descent. This somber reality adds depth to our appreciation for their remarkable feat. Through this photograph's intricate details and skillful engraving technique by James Mahoney, we are transported back to an era when conquering nature's most formidable peaks was seen as a testament to human determination and courage. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst great danger
