From the Plan de Bertol, The Aiguilles Rouges, Pennine Alps 1908

Editor: This striking image, "From the Plan de Bertol, The Aiguilles Rouges" by George Perry Ashley Abraham, showcases the Alps. It feels both immense and intimate at the same time. What really stands out to you about this photograph? Curator: It’s a dance, isn't it? A grayscale ballet of light and shadow. I imagine Abraham, perched precariously, inhaling the crisp mountain air, composing not just with his camera but with his very breath. Can you almost feel the chill? Editor: I can! It's amazing how he captured that. Curator: Photography, especially then, was about seizing a feeling, a fleeting moment of sublime connection. Does it make you want to climb, or simply contemplate? Editor: Definitely contemplate, from a warm room with a cup of tea! Thanks for your perspective. Curator: And thank you, for sharing the view. It’s like we've both stood on that mountain, just for a moment.
