This photograph looks like something out of a dream. How can you imagine such a place in the Alps? How could nature be so perfect, and the Swiss Alps such a treasure trove? All the beauty of the world in one picture. All the immensity of the heights in a single glance. The improbable and ultimate splendor of a thousand-year-old kingdom. This work inspires us to travel to meet all these summits.
