About the work
Facing the glorious mythical Matterhorn, filtered light coats the clouds to add a unique effect of beauty and silvery brilliance to the east face of one of the world's most iconic mountains, in a vision between two worlds bordering on the mystical.
It begs the question: does luck really exist, or is it the result of many attempts? After countless nights sleeping in my tent near the Matterhorn, hoping for different and special conditions each time, luck suddenly appeared to me.
That day, there was a lot of snow, and when the sun came up, there were no clouds. The snow conditions were perfect on the Matterhorn, and then the weather began to change radically. A lenticular cloud began to form in the sky, created by strong high-altitude winds. With the tripod set up, I was ready to welcome this unexpected moment of truth.
The use of a black filter was used to smooth and capture the movement of the cloud to obtain that floating sensation as if clinging to the summit of the Matterhorn, giving an impression of movement from another world.
This work is a constant reminder that luck doesn't make everything happen. It's up to us to act with the right intention, to try, to persevere and to be ready to welcome because, sometimes and without expecting it: we can encounter one of those moments of profound truth on our path.

Collector's notice
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!
