Beschreibung
What did our highest mountains look like in the days of the first skiers and tourists? Which mountain lodges still stand intact today, and which ones would we search for in vain? How did women ski in skirts and hats? The first professional and amateur photographers left behind evidence of this. More than 140 images of the Krkonoš mountains were selected, edited, and accompanied by texts from photographer and owner of a family collection of old photographs Pavel Scheufler. The foreword to the book was written by aesthetician and historian of natural sciences Karel Stibral. The publication is not only a valuable testimony to the transformation of our highest mountains but also a guide on how to read photographs so that we can hear the captivating stories they tell us.
