"Twee mannen bij een gletsjerspleet in de Eigergletsjer" is a black and white photograph depicting two men standing on a glacier. The men are silhouetted against the stark, white ice, giving them an ethereal quality. The photo, created between 1897-1920, is a fascinating glimpse into the past and highlights the beauty and danger of the natural world. The image was taken in the Eigergletsjer, a glacier located in the Bernese Oberland region of Switzerland. This image is a great example of photography from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which often focused on capturing the sublime and dramatic aspects of nature. This particular piece is currently part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
