Lower Grindelwald Glacier (Bernese Alps)
1669 | 1748 | 1762 | 1775

It was the glacier reaching the lowest elevation in the Alps during the Little Ice Age (972 m asl) and the site with by far the oldest and richest pictorial documentation. 😍

Barbegazi are kindly mountain spirits from the French-Swiss Alps. Their name comes from the French ‘barbe glacée’ meaning ‘frozen beard’. They wear bright white fur clothes to stay camouflaged in the snow and have long icicles hanging from their hair and beards.

15. Napoleon Crossing the Alps by Jacques-Louis David (1801)

A portrait which speaks to the Enlightenment and to the French Revolution, to the ideals of rationality and universal rights, and to the conflicts which would accompany their progress around the world.
