about the work
Fabulous portrait of the Jungfrau which, with the Mönch and at theEiger, dominates the bernese alps, in Switzerland. The mountain culminates at 4158 meters above the valleys of Lauterbrunnen and Grindelwald. From Wengen, Mürren or Grindelwald, you have to lean back to see summit because of its height and its vertical cliff. This black and white photograph highlights the western face of the mountain, with its two summits : the Jungfrau and the Wengen-Jungfrau, which give it the appearance of a cat's head. The generous forms of this legendary mountain, whose name means "Young Girl", invites you to dream, have always inspired me. On the right, the Rottasattel pass, the last step before reaching summit, leads to the Rottalhorn.I waited eight long years before I was able to achieve this exceptional panorama. At each storm, I tried my luck. But I was always under the clouds, without being able to see the summits. When the mountain would finally clear, day would give way to night, preventing me from photographing it. When the storm hit at night, I would rush to get there at daybreak before it tore through. But it was already too late. The Jungfrau was lost in the blue sky, offering to see a postcard landscape devoid of any emotion. Then, one day, the miracle happened. I will always remember this suspended moment where exaltation was mixed with deliverance. Incredible victory after so many failures. I could finally breathe, fulfilled to have been able to attend such a beautiful show and proud to have succeeded in immortalizing it through my art.
On this particular day of spring, nature woke up out of time. The summits of bernese alps appeared one by one, coming out of the mist as if reborn to life. Exposing their dazzling snowy coat to the sun. In this atmosphere of pure beauty and intense emotion, I took out my camera in honor of the Jungfrau which offered itself to my glance, worthy and prestigious. Infinite greatness of the mountain which, like a pure diamond, tears the sky here.
This photographic work is part of my "Celestial Kingdom" collection because the mountain appears as an island emerging from a flood of clouds. The stormy winds are still blowing on summits, giving life to the picture. I like the balance that is created between the forms. This portrait holds a special place in my heart. The black and white gives way to silver tones, highlighted by a backlight. I never tire of this fascinating photograph of bernese alps in which I keep discovering new details. Abstract forms, a different interpretation of the mountain. A universe that never lets itself be fully discovered and that continues to surprise me at every moment.
