EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to 1910, offering a glimpse into the rich history of the Elbe region in what is now the Czech Republic. The image showcases an impressive sight - gasometers and pontoon bridges utilized by the Austro-Hungarian Army. The gasometers, towering structures used for storing and regulating gas supplies, stand tall against the backdrop of a serene river. Their imposing presence hints at their importance during this era, serving as vital resources for fueling various industries and households. Intriguingly, we also see pontoon bridges stretching across the river's expanse. These temporary floating structures were ingeniously designed to provide passage over water bodies when permanent bridges were absent or destroyed during times of conflict or construction. The austere soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian Army can be seen on these bridges, perhaps engaged in military exercises or guarding strategic points along this crucial waterway. This snapshot offers a rare insight into their daily lives and duties during that period. As we admire this historical postcard-like print, it transports us to a different time altogether - one where technology was evolving rapidly and armies relied on innovative solutions like pontoon bridges to overcome geographical obstacles. Preserved with care within its frame, this photograph serves as a testament to our shared past while reminding us of how far we have come since those days.
