About the work
Day breaks on the north face of Piz Roseg in the Engadine. Dominating the horizon, its half-moon summit rises to an altitude of 3935 metres. After the storm, the clouds continue to play with the ridges, giving them a mystical allure. Between light and shadow, the mountain transports us into a world of purity.
I waited a long time for the perfect moment to capture this photograph of Piz Roseg. I waited for a storm to envelop the summit and capture it at its best, when the summit is freshly snow-covered and glowing with warm light. When I first saw this mountain from the air, its north face immediately captivated me: gigantic, vertical, inaccessible. Today, looking at this work, the summit reminds me of Breithorn, with its lines reminiscent of a crescent moon.
Admire the contrast in this photograph: the power of Piz Roseg confronts the soft hues of the snow. This is the essence of my art: to reveal a mountain that is both inaccessible and gentle. Observe the play of duality - the rays coming from the left illuminate the right-hand side of the work, while the wind from the right pushes the clouds to the left.
In immortalizing this photograph of Piz Roseg, I wanted to emphasize the verticality of the massif and its grandeur. In its color and composition, the work embodies the aesthetics of the summit. Life is breathed into this work, that of the mountain, the clouds and the elements. At every moment, nature reveals its infinite beauty.

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!
