About the work
The immensity of the Alps at your fingertips. I designed this incredible black and white panoramic photograph as an open window on the most beautiful summits Alps. Its very wide 5:1 format and the quality of its resolution will take you on an exceptional high-mountain journey. To create this aerial view, I took to the skies above the Weisshorn in late summer 2020. After the passage of a snowstorm that the mountains had been expecting for several months.
Our journey begins in the Valais Alps. In the foreground of the photograph, Mount Besso enjoys the first rays of sunshine on val d’Anniviers, while its Blanc de Moming ridge meanders peacefully in the shadows. Behind it, a gigantic pyramid, the Dent Blanche guides us, sparkling, up to the Grand Cornier. The second shot takes us into the Val d'Hérens, in the center of the picture. The Aiguille de la Tsa, a discreet peak reclining in the shadows, contrasts with the Pigne d'Arolla, whose bleached face glistens in the sunlight. From Mont Blanc de Cheilon, we enter the Val de Bagnes. Opposite us, Grand Combin and the Combin de la Tsessette reveal their grandeur. To the right, the mountains of Chamonix appear on the horizon. Mont Blanc, king of the Alps, seems to rub shoulders with the sky. The Aiguille du Midi ridge leads us to the Courtes, Droites, Aiguille Verte, Aiguille d'Argentière, Aiguille du Chardonnet and Aiguille du Tour. The Mont Blanc massif rises in majesty. Then it's back to Mont de l'Étoile. The shadow of the Weisshorn is reflected on its dazzling face. The silhouette of a colossus whose ridge takes us from the Grand Gendarme to Bishorn.
I created this exceptional panorama as a tribute to the beauty of the mountain. Thanks to the contrasts brought about by the recent snowfall, the work enjoys a unique depth. The morning shadows invite us to travel from valley to valley, discovering all these high summits. Light and shadow punctuate the picture and set the pace. Each summit responds to the other, as if in a song proclaiming the infinite splendor of the Alps.

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.
