Dufourspitze
At 4,634 metres, the Dufourspitze stands as Switzerland's highest sentinel in the heart of the Monte Rosa massif. Less well known to the general public than its illustrious neighbor, the Matterhorn, it is nonetheless an exceptional Alpine colossus, the third highest summit in the Alps. Its powerful ridges, sculpted by winds and glaciers, seem to dominate the Valais sky, offering a spectacle both wild and timeless.
For Thomas Crauwelsthe Dufourspitze is an irresistible call to altitude, an encounter with the realm where high altitude and ice unite in a symphony of light and shadow. His photographic expeditions, often conducted in the icy silence of the first light of dawn, reveal the unalterable majesty of this summit. Between the thrill of the unknown and the quest for aesthetic perfection, he captures those fleeting moments when the mountain seems to reveal itself entirely, as if suspended in an eternity of snow and wind.
Through his eyes, the Dufourspitze becomes more than a summit: it embodies the strength and poetry of the high mountains. Each shot bears the raw emotion of the mountaineer and photographer, the testimony of a deep fascination for these vertiginous altitudes. Thomas 's work is an invitation to contemplate the serene power of the Dufourspitze, silent guardian of the Swiss-Italian border, and to feel the nobility of this natural monument, standing proudly at the summit Switzerland.

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.
