About the work
The Aletschhorn reveals its legendary stature in the face of oncoming summer storms. This magnificent 4,194-metre-high pyramid, the second summit in the bernese alps, has the reputation of being the coldest mountain in the Alps. Clouds gather around this giant, heralding the typical summer thunderstorms.
It evokes so many memories for me! Climbing the Aletschhorn remains a memorable expedition for me. From the Hollandia hut, I reached the Sattelhorn before following the ridge that crosses the Kleines Aletschhorn. By the time I reached the summit the Aletschhorn, I was exhausted. The weight of the skis on my back had drained my strength. But I felt so much joy! Here I was, on this inaccessible summit in the heart of the Alps. Before skiing back down to the Mittelaletschgletscher, I took one last look at this magnificent landscape and thanked the heavens for giving me the chance to experience such an adventure.
I seized the moment when the mountains prepare to face the fury of summer. I've waited many years for this day to arrive. For the clouds to embrace the mountain, for light and shadow to play with the face. Between darkness and light, the Aletschhorn reveals its beauty and grandeur. This photograph brings together the elements I love to work on: my artistic search contrasts and the play of light, and my aesthetic quest for the graphic power of mountains. The balance in this work is perfect. When we contemplate this photograph, we are transported to another universe. A universe that only nature knows the secrets of.

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!
