Wonderful panoramic photography of the Mont Blanc massif in the French Alps. Here we are at the gateway to the celestial kingdom, dominated by Europe's highest mountain. At the center of the picture, the famous Mont Blanc, 4808 meters high, catches our eye. The work highlights the four paths leading to this divine summit . On the left, the three mountains begin to cross. Mont Blanc du Tacul, whose glaciers are scarred by crevasses and seracs. Mont Maudit, whose vertiginous face seems impassable. The Col de la Brenva takes us to summit . Behind it, you can see its little brother, Mont Blanc from Courmayeur. To the right, we follow the Goûter ridge. Can you see the tip of the refuge, nestled like an eagle's nest at summit on the Aiguille du Goûter? After crossing the Dôme du Goûter, we follow the Bosses ridge to the summit of the Queen Mountain. Behind this ridge is the royal route, which passes over the Aiguille de Bionassay before rejoining the normal route via the Goûter. Finally, in the center of the picture, the historic route winds its way through the Grands Mulets, the Petit Plateau and the Grand Plateau. This route is now rarely climbed, as it crosses inhospitable seracs. So many routes that mountaineers who have had or will have the privilege of climbing this fabulous fortress of rock and ice will dream about.

How do men, so small, manage to reach the roof of Europe? By listening to nature and the will of the mountain. But also by uniting their physical and mental strength and their technical knowledge in a single drive. Entrusting their destiny to their rope-mates, they climb summits. Combining their fears and doubts, they become one. Succeed or fail, but together. Whatever happens, they are one body, one soul. And to share in this extraordinary adventure that few will ever have the chance to experience.

This exceptional panorama highlights the immensity of the massif which, thanks to its high altitude, still enjoys a thick armoury of ice. Chamonix and Mont Blanc, the cradle of mountaineering, continue to inspire mountain lovers and inspire me infinitely. Plunging my gaze into the heart of this fascinating landscape encourages me to pursue my artistic quest. To immortalize the splendour of the Alps and pass on this heritage to the public of today and tomorrow.
