"Piz Popena in het Cristallomassief" is a photochrom print depicting a majestic mountain range, likely in the Alps, showcasing a dramatic, rugged landscape. The peaks are snow-capped and the valleys are filled with glaciers. The photochrom technique, popular at the turn of the 20th century, creates a vivid and detailed rendering of the scene, typical of the era's fascination with documenting the natural world. This photograph, part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, offers a glimpse into the grandeur of the mountains and serves as a testament to the artistry of early photography.
