About the work
In this captivating work, the Petit Clocher du Portalet stands proudly, like a natural pillar reaching for the sky. Its appearance is that of an arrow sculpted by the vagaries of time, pointing with determination to the heavens. In the background, Tour Noir reveals itself, bathed in a soft yet revealing sunlight, contrasting with the fury of a storm that embraces it.
Note the crack that separates the Petit Clocher du Portalet into two distinct parts; one can't help but wonder how much longer they'll be one.
The photograph captures a graceful moment when light triumphs over turmoil, illuminating the ridges in a visual ballet of light and dark. Here, nature manifests itself in all its splendor and strength, evoking the duality of tranquility and turbulence that coexist in the dizzying heights of the Alps.
This massif is home to some of the most challenging climbing routes in the Valais Alps, where the world's best climbers come to compete. For passionate climbers, only the normal route is an option.
This work is a tribute to the evocative power of the mountains, an inexhaustible source of inspiration and contemplation for the soul in search of beauty and meaning.

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.

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!
