The Eiger
In the heart of the Bernese Alps, Thomas Crauwels confronts the Eiger, a formidable giant of stone and ice, notoriously nicknamed the "ogre" for its treacherous North Face, which has claimed many lives in attempts to conquer it. To Thomas, the Eiger is more than just a peak; it's a symbol of ultimate challenges and a guardian of Alpine history, marked by feats and tragedies. The Mittellegi ridge, visible from Grindelwald as a shark's fin, represents to him a path of light and shadows, promising an authentic Alpine adventure.
Each photograph taken by Thomas Crauwels in this wild setting is a quest for pure emotion, a tribute to the majesty of the Eiger. His work transcends the simple image; it tells the story of the climbers attracted by this mountain, between fascination and respect. Through his work, the Eiger reveals all its majesty, from its base enveloped in a sea of clouds to its North Face and summit, touching the sky. For Thomas Crauwels, photographing the Eiger means capturing the ephemeral, bearing witness to the immortality of a moment when mountain, man and myth meet.

We enjoy it every day!
As former inhabitants of Zermatt, it's hard to forget the Matterhorn, even in a new environment of mountains and nature.we discovered this large photo of the Matterhorn in a gallery, so strong and intense, it was impossible to forget it........ It became obvious that it should adorn our new apartment as a centerpiece.What's more, we had a very sympathetic contact with the artist, who came himself to deliver his work.It's very appreciable and adds a dimension to the object, to know its creator, his passion, the conditions under which it was taken.The texture of the photo resembles a painting, the lights play on it, Next the hours. It seems alive. A real daily pleasure!

We were bowled over!
My wife and I are amazed at the quality of print and the rendering of this magnificent photo. We had waited many years to put a picture on this blank wall because we had never "flashed" on a piece of art. Now we've found it, and it fits in perfectly at the entrance to our apartment. What's more, it depicts 3 summits that are particularly close to our hearts: the Weisshorn, Dent Blanche and the Matterhorn - quite a symbol...
We'd like to thank you again for your impeccable service (rapid response to enquiries, hyper-realistic projection of the work on the photos of the wall beforehand). In short, we have nothing to complain about and look forward to seeing you at an opening.
