About the work
Portrait of Piz Palü, a superb mountain of rock and ice in Switzerland's Bernina massif. Rising to an altitude of 3,899 metres, its kilometre-long wingspan gives it an incredible presence. Its hanging glaciers are magnificent, and I dream of one day completing its ridge run, which is said to be sensational.
After spending many years trying to immortalize the beauty of this high summit, I'm proud to present this beautiful photograph of Piz Palü. I took it in spring, after a snowstorm. The snow-covered summit , illuminated by the sun, tears through the clouds.
The photograph invites us to rediscover it again and again, delving into its many details. The beauty of its suspended glaciers, the crosshatching and shadows that leave us dreaming. The work takes us on a journey to the heart of a wonderful world of Alpine purity. We move along, lulled by the gentleness of this grandiose, powerful landscape. Therein lies the strength of this portrait: to convey the power of Piz Palü through the infinite gentleness that envelops us as we gaze upon it. I love these soft contrasts, these silvery tones. They highlight the personality of this broad, serene summit . A quiet beauty rather than a giant with sharp teeth.
The play of light and shadow also highlights the distinctive silhouette of this Engadine mountain, giving the work a highly aesthetic symmetry and an almost abstract scope. Faced with this divine painting, we can only dream, escape and love even more the transcendent beauty of the high mountains.

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!
