A magnificent late 19th century large-format chromolithograph of the village of Zermatt and the Matterhorn.
Vintage grey passe-partout with finely embossed gold text.
Zermatt around 1885, before the arrival of the train (1891). In those days, journeys were only made by stagecoach. These chromolithographic views, the forerunners of travel posters, were sold to travellers.
