Weisshorn
Le Souffle de Glace
About the work
This black-and-white photograph focuses on the Weisshorn North Ridge and its Grand Gendarme. Invincible bastion, sharp point, it protects the mountain from any incursion. I love that fleeting moment when the mountain reveals its most beautiful face to me. When it emerges from the storm plastered with snow. I love its inaccessible grandeur, its fascinating charisma.
Between light and shadow, the Weisshorn takes shape in the Valais Alps. The gentle contrasts reveal the richness of its lines and the beauty of its relief. Its relentless snow bridges and fabulous crevasses. The rigor of its rock and its jagged ridges. At summit , opaline clouds open the way to the invisible, as if the soul of the Weisshorn were escaping for a while to reach the sky.
