about the work
Portrait of the Aiguille du Plan, proudly standing among the Aiguilles de Chamonix, in the Mont-Blanc massif, in France. Culminating at 3673 meters, only the Aiguille du Midi overhangs it in the area.Just after the storm, at the hour when the last rays of the sun light up the horizon, a magical moment when the clouds are torn apart to make way for the mountain. Powerful and sumptuous, its dress is frosted, as it happens on very rare occasions. When the elements enter in symbiosis to offer to the eyes the raw purity of a shocking nature. I was there at the right place and the right time to capture this sacred moment. The perfect moment.
More than a portrait, this work reveals the abstract forms that the mountain takes in the face of the elements. Everyone can interpret in his own way the shape of this double summit which springs out of the mist. It arouses strong emotions in us, shakes us up and hypnotizes us at the same time. The impression of touching purity with our eyes, a beauty that could come from another world.
The magic of this photograph also resides in the grandeur of the Agulhas of Chamonix which, unceasingly mishandled by the bad weather, continue to stand, unperturbed at summit . Their granite teeth, facing every winter the most violent storms, offer us by their verticality and their sharp form one of the most beautiful creations that we can admire when they emerge from the clouds, sublimated by the brightness of the snow and the light. The photograph immortalizes this ephemeral moment that has become an eternal work of art.
