EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the picturesque town of Eglisau in Switzerland, circa 1872. Taken by Samuel Bradshaw, it showcases a breathtaking view of the town with its charming covered bridge spanning over the majestic River Rhine. The image is sourced from Captain H M Hozier's book "The Franco-Prussian War: its causes, incidents and consequences". Volume II. Eglisau's beauty is enhanced by the surrounding mountains that provide a stunning backdrop to this idyllic scene. The presence of several buildings, including a prominent church structure, adds to the charm and religious significance of this Swiss town. Transportation plays an important role in this image as well. A cart can be seen crossing the bridge, symbolizing road transport during the 19th century. This historical snapshot allows us to appreciate how people traversed through this scenic region centuries ago. The print itself is an engraving created by William Mackenzie in London back in 1872. It belongs to The Print Collector collection curated by Myles Birket Foster, showcasing his expertise in capturing geographical features with precision and artistry. This remarkable photograph offers viewers a glimpse into Eglisau's rich history while highlighting its natural splendor and architectural marvels. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and nature's grandeur intertwined harmoniously along the banks of River Rhine in Switzerland.
