Detailed Product Description
Germany, 2010, 1st edition. 144 pp, 100+ color photos. The fascination of the Alps is still unbroken. Since the beginning of the 19th Century, traveled to those who could afford it, in this magnificent mountain scenery. The previously unreleased, already-built and colored by watercolourists Glasdiapositve in this volume are from the period between 1900 and 1925 and take a nostalgic look at the Alpine countries.

The photographs take you to a time when we drove into the mountains for their summer and winter sports have had a touch of exclusivity. Intrepid mountaineers looking into steep rocky cliffs of adventure, first-pass road and cog railways made the Alps for less daring accessible and opened up vast panoramas, stunning waterfalls, tranquil lakes and secluded mountain villages. The pictures in this book can imagine the fascination which was connected with the conquest of adventurous rock and the Arctic Ocean and at the same time give evidence of an originality that is now threatened with disappearance. Large hardcover, DJ, New.
