EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Travel views of Europe, c1904," is a visual narrative of a remarkable journey undertaken by Georg Elsenhaus. The image, created by renowned German photographer Arnold Genthe, documents Elsenhaus' attempt to walk from Bavaria, Germany, to the St. Louis World's Fair in the United States. The photograph captures Elsenhaus, dressed in turn-of-the-century attire, standing next to a barrel, possibly as part of a supply train or a rest stop. The barrels, stacked high behind him, suggest the long and arduous journey that lay ahead. The location of the image is not explicitly stated, but the title "Von Waldkirch...St. Louis Weltausstellung...Amerika" suggests that it was taken somewhere in Europe, likely near the starting point of Elsenhaus' journey. The photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on travel during the early 1900s. The concept of walking from Europe to America for an exhibition in the United States was an unusual one, and Elsenhaus' determination to complete the journey is evident in this image. The photograph is also a testament to the enduring allure of exploration and adventure, as well as the spirit of innovation and progress that characterized the early 20th century. This photograph is part of the extensive Arnold Genthe collection held at the Library of Congress. The collection, which includes over 10,000 nitrate negatives, is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of photography and the world during the 1900s and 1910s. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich heritage and cultural exchange that occurred during this period, as well as the human spirit of adventure and perseverance.
