Editor: This is a photograph by A.G. Wehrli entitled *Piz Roseg, Piz Scerscen, The Engadine*. It depicts a stark, imposing mountain range. What stands out to you in terms of its composition? Curator: The photograph’s brilliance lies in its tonal range, extending from the deep blacks of the rock face to the stark whites of the snow and ice. How do these contrasts influence your interpretation of the image? Editor: They really amplify the sense of scale and the rough texture. It feels both beautiful and a little daunting. Curator: Precisely. The sharp, angular lines of the peaks, juxtaposed with the soft, diffused light, create a visual tension that speaks to the sublime power of nature. The visual elements contribute to a rich viewing experience. Editor: That makes a lot of sense. I see new dimensions of the artwork now.
