El retiro de los glaciares es un fenómeno que se viene dando desde antes de la revolución industrial luego de que la tierra, o algunas regiones de ella, concluyera una pequeña edad de hielo. Imágenes de la pequeña edad de hielo se conservan en el arte y es posible observarlas en museos.
En la siguiente imagen veremos al glaciar Mer de Glace en la región de los Alpes franceses en la región del Mont Blanc. Hacia la izquierda se muestra un fragmento de una pintura de Birman poco después del máximo de la pequeña edad de hielo, la pintura proviene de la colección Gugelmann del Swiss National Library en Berna. Hacia la derecha vemos una fotografía del mismo lugar tomada por M. J. Hambrey en el año 2000.
