PREFACE BY THOMAS CRAUWELS
Verbier is not just a place, it's a sanctuary. Here, the light touches the peaks like a promise, and the silence bears the imprint of the souls who dare to lose themselves there. These mountains are not landscapes, but timeless watchmen, guardians of a realm where the fleeting meets the infinite.
Through the lens, I've tried to approach the inaccessible: to capture not just form, but essence. Each photograph is an offering, a moment snatched from the breath of the elements, an intimate dialogue with that which is beyond comprehension.
The result is "Verbier", a rare work, as precious as a dewdrop clinging to eternity. limited , one hundred copies, is an oath of fidelity to that which is pure, indomitable. Each book is a unique fragment of this sanctuary, an open door to the infinite for those who hear the call of silence and light.
As you turn these pages, may you feel the breath of summits, the echo of a world that is beyond us and yet belongs to us.

Collector's reviews
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!
