Artifact Overview

In 1913, Henry Ford established Ford Motor Company's photographic department. Though few internal records describe company photography, remaining photographs reveal a wide range of departmental activity. Over nearly 100 years, Ford photographers documented company ventures, personal affairs, and daily life around the world. In this photograph, motorists visit Fluela Pass, a historic route through the Swiss Alps.
