about the work
A grandiose portrait of the Weisshorn towering above the clouds. summit the highest of the imperial crown of Zinal, it spreads its rocks between val d’Anniviers and the valley of Zermatt, in the Valais Alps. This magnificent photograph, taken from Zermatt, shows how the Weisshorn is one of the most beautiful mountains in Switzerland. A perfect pyramid that seems to link heaven and earth. The Schaligrat ridge on the left and the normal route on the right underline its elegant and generous silhouette. In the background, the bernese alps emerge from the mist, sublimating the beauty of this celestial panorama.I immortalized the mountain in 2020, after one of the rare summer storms that crossed the Alps that year. I was infinitely lucky to be there at the right time. When the summit, sparkling white, pierces the clouds. Luminous sovereign dominating the horizon. When we admire the work in large format, when we plunge our eyes into the hollow of the mountain, the details multiply. Questioning our mind and raising our soul. The reliefs of the glacier, the succession of snowy lines, the striations that cross the mountain to testify of its geological richness. Contemplating the photography makes us enter a teeming universe that surprises us at every moment.
Using soft, silvery contrasts, I wanted to convey the incredible grandeur of the Weisshorn. But how can you imagine the sheer size of this slope in this untouched immensity? There are no human visitors on the mountain, which snow conditions have made inaccessible. Only the Schali bivouac can serve as a landmark. But can you see it, nestling at the foot of the Schaligrat? Like a bottle lost in the middle of the ocean. I dream of one day reaching this wild and isolated refuge, and then climbing summit. A true invitation to travel, this photograph is an ode to the imposing and sumptuous Weisshorn.

Description
A grandiose portrait of the Weisshorn towering above the clouds. summit the highest of the imperial crown of Zinal, it spreads its rocks between val d’Anniviers and the valley of Zermatt, in the Valais Alps. This magnificent photograph, taken from Zermatt, shows how the Weisshorn is one of the most beautiful mountains in Switzerland. A perfect pyramid that seems to link heaven and earth. The Schaligrat ridge on the left and the normal route on the right underline its elegant and generous silhouette. In the background, the bernese alps emerge from the mist, sublimating the beauty of this celestial panorama.
I immortalized the mountain in 2020, after one of the rare summer storms that crossed the Alps that year. I was infinitely lucky to be there at the right time. When the summit, sparkling white, pierces the clouds. Luminous sovereign dominating the horizon. When we admire the work in large format, when we plunge our eyes into the hollow of the mountain, the details multiply. Questioning our mind and raising our soul.

Contemplating the photography makes us enter a teeming universe that surprises us at every moment.
With soft, silvery contrasts, I wanted to convey the incredible grandeur of the Weisshorn. But how to imagine the disproportionate size of this slope in this virgin immensity? No man walks on the mountain, which the snow conditions have made inaccessible. Only the bivouac of Schali can be used as a reference. But, do you see it, huddled at the foot of the Schaligrat? Like a bottle lost in the middle of the ocean. I dream one day of reaching this refuge, wild and isolated, to then climb the summit. A true invitation to travel, this photograph is an ode to the Weisshorn, imposing and sumptuous.
