Description: Ile de Clarens, Lake Geneva - SWITZERLAND - EMBOSSED: Clarens is a small village in the municipality of Montreux, in the canton of Vaud, in Switzerland. Clarens was made famous throughout Europe by the immense success of the book La Nouvelle Héloïse by Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Whilst in Clarens, the Russian composer Igor Stravinsky wrote his ballets The Rite of Spring and Pulcinella and in March 1878, Tchaikovsky wrote his Violin Concerto. Paul Kruger, hero of South African independence from Britain, died here. For this reason, a village in South Africa was given the same name. The anarchist and geographer Élisée Reclus resided in Clarens. Writer Vladimir Nabokov is buried there. Lake Geneva (French: le lac Léman or le Léman) is a lake on the north side of the Alps, shared between Switzerland and France. It is one of the largest lakes in Western Europe and the largest on the course of the Rhône. This Divided Back Era (1907-15) postcard is in good condition. Edition Moos Karlsruhe Geneva Baden-Baden.
