About the work
In the twilight of our days, fog reigned. Covering the world in a silent blanket. When from the depths of the sky the mountains rose. Swept by the fury of the winds, they point to the sky, grandiose and crystalline, to announce to the world that grace endures. That there is an ultimate power in our hearts, a life force that cannot be tamed. When it awakens, it floods the universe with sublime truths and absolute beauty. Emerging from the peaks, the fulgurance of life.
As the storm rages over the Alps, I set off to meet the mountains from a helicopter. Hovering above the clouds, I watch for a break in the weather. The sun is about to set, but I remain hopeful, waiting at all costs, ready to seize the moment. And as I approach the Mont-Blanc massif, nature suddenly answers my call. The sky clears, revealing the sovereign peaks before my astonished eyes. Sparkling and valiant, they rise up, illuminated by the sun's rays. So I photograph them. The Grandes Jorasses on the horizon, carried by the deep, vigorous shadow of the firmament. Only the ridge linking summits sparkles, like a path to infinity, like an unequalled quest. The Aiguille du Plan, at the front of the picture, thundering with purity.
Sailing along a celestial ocean of enchanting reflections, the yin and yang of wilderness capture our gaze. As the first lands appear at the origins of the world. As light is born from darkness. This work resonates with the obvious. The balance of forms, the simplicity of lines. Abstraction here conveys emotion. I'm delighted to offer you this unique painting, born of the perfect symbiosis between the breath of the winds and my artist's instinct.

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!

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.
