"Jungfraubahn, station Eigergletscher, de berg Eiger op de achtergrond, Berner Alpen, Zwitserland," is a black and white photograph by the Gebrüder Wehrli, taken sometime after 1912. It depicts the Eigergletscher train station, which is nestled on a mountainside below the towering Eiger peak. The image, housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the grandeur of the Swiss Alps. The dramatic scale of the mountain, juxtaposed with the modest station, underscores the power of nature. The photograph is an example of early 20th century documentary photography, capturing a scene of life in a remote, yet increasingly accessible region of Switzerland.
