Lenzspitze
The Lenzspitze (4,293 m) rises like an elegant spire from the Nadelgrat in the Upper Valais, attracting the attention of thrill-seeking mountaineers. Its North face, a unique symbol of the Alps, and its tapering ridges offer a striking contrast to the gentle glaciers that surround it. Less publicized than other peaks, the Lenzspitze preserves an intimate, untamed atmosphere, where every step is an encounter with the high mountains in all their purity.
For Thomas Crauwelsthe Lenzspitze embodies the rare harmony between technical demands and timeless beauty. In his photographs, the play of light on snow and rock creates a choreography of shadows, sometimes revealing the austerity of the face, sometimes the softness of a sun-drenched slope. As the hours pass, the shadows lengthen and the clouds change, giving the summit an almost dreamlike quality. It is in these fleeting moments that Thomas draws the soul of the Lenzspitze, symbol of a true, demanding and deeply inspiring mountain.
