Editor: So, this photograph by A. G. Wehrli captures the Gross Wannehorn and other peaks in the Bernese Oberland. It's stark, almost severe, in its monochrome rendering. What do you see in this piece? Curator: Immediately, I'm struck by the composition. The mountains, almost gothic in their sharpness, dominate the frame. It evokes a feeling of awe, doesn't it? Like standing before something ancient and unconquerable. The artist isn't just showing us mountains; they're showing us their power. Don’t you think? Editor: Absolutely. The starkness makes you consider your own place in the natural world. Curator: Precisely! It's a reminder of nature's enduring strength and beauty. Editor: I hadn't thought about it that way, but now I see it. Curator: Art is all about perspective, isn't it? It's like climbing a mountain yourself, you only see the view from where you stand.
