EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking print from the late 19th century, we see a climber in a precarious position, pressed against a sheer rockface and buffeted by a howling gale. The image captures the essence of the dangerous sport of climbing, highlighting the thin line between life and death that climbers often face.
As the climber gains a vivid insight into the narrow gap betwixt life and death, one can almost feel their heart racing with adrenaline. The vertigo-inducing perspective of looking down from such heights is enough to make anyone say "yikes"!
This image serves as a reminder of the bravery and skill required to partake in such extreme sports. It also showcases the beauty and power of nature, as well as our own human limitations when faced with its challenges.
So next time you think about trying your hand at climbing, remember this print and tread carefully - for in those moments where danger lurks just around the corner, it's important to stay focused and respect both yourself and Mother Nature.
