Far from being an aesthetic concern, the location of Chillon Castle is the result of strategic considerations. Situated on one of the 6 islands of Lake Geneva, between a steep slope and the lake, it enabled a garrison to control the trade route between northern and southern Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries that the view from Veytaux began to be appreciated. The emergence of landscape painting and picturesque journeys found a majestic setting in Chillon. The contrasts are numerous: human-nature, vertical-horizontal, rock-water, the viewpoint is immortalised by many artists. \ud835\udde7\ud835\ude02\ud835\uddff\ud835\uddfb\ud835\uddf2\ud835\uddff (1809), \ud835\uddd6\ud835\uddfc\ud835\ude02\ud835\uddff\ud835\uddef\ud835\uddf2\ud835\ude01 (1875) and \ud835\udde8\ud835\ude01\ud835\uddff\ud835\uddf6\ud835\uddf9\ud835\uddf9\ud835\uddfc (1915-1916) have all contributed through their paintings and drawings to making this place, or rather the view of this place, an extremely famous setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This sublime painting later became an integral part of the imagination of the lake through postcards and advertisements, particularly railway advertisements (SBB 1928).
