In the Valley of Chamouni, Savoy. Photographer: Thompson, Stephen
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Landscape Photography
View looking along the valley, towards a village in the middleground and mountains and a glacier beyond, with figures posed in the foreground: 'A broken foreground of huge boulders; stones over which the mosses are gathering in their own gentle way, relieving the chill-grey surface with bosses of warmer colour; wild shrubs, and grass-grown intervals of rougher ground, dark pines, delicate birches with silver stems, lie near us, and beyond to the right sours up the Aiguille du Dru, one of the most graceful and picturesque of all the Chamouni Aiguilles. Such is the point of view, far removed from the too well-trodden paths of Montanvert.'
