EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a moment frozen in time in the French Alps, specifically the massif of the Vanoise in Haute-Savoie. The image shows three individuals descending from the Rechasse, with one man leading the way while two women follow closely behind, each holding an axe. The father Arriez is depicted as a strong and experienced mountaineer, guiding his companions through the rugged terrain.
The backdrop of towering mountains and rocky cliffs adds to the sense of adventure and challenge that comes with climbing such peaks. The women's presence challenges traditional gender roles of the early 20th century, showcasing their determination and skill in this male-dominated sport.
The vintage aesthetic of this photograph transports us back to a time when mountaineering was still a relatively new and exciting pursuit. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with conquering nature's most formidable landscapes.
Overall, this image not only documents a specific moment in history but also evokes feelings of awe and admiration for those who dare to explore and conquer the great outdoors.
