Gezicht op de Alpen vanaf de Pilatus te Zwitserland 1896 - 1897

"Gezicht op de Alpen vanaf de Pilatus te Zwitserland" (View of the Alps from Mount Pilatus in Switzerland), created by Photochrom Zürich between 1896 and 1897, is a photochrom print, a process that used pigmented gelatin to color black and white photographs. This particular print is a scenic vista depicting a mountainous landscape in Switzerland. The image captures the grandeur of the Swiss Alps, showcasing the snow-capped peaks and forested slopes, with a lake visible in the valley. This photochrom is an example of late 19th-century photographic technology and its ability to capture the beauty of nature. It is currently located at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
