EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking photo print, Swiss artist Gerry Hofstetter pays homage to the 100-year anniversary of the Jungfrau railway by illuminating the north face of the iconic Jungfrau mountain with a giant light installation of the flag of Switzerland. Captured from Oberbuetschel near Bern on January 1,2012, this mesmerizing display showcases Hofstetter's artistic brilliance against the backdrop of nature's grandeur. As darkness falls over Thun below, Hofstetter's creation comes alive, casting a radiant glow that beautifully contrasts with the surrounding Eiger and Moench mountains. The meticulously crafted light installation not only celebrates a century-long legacy but also symbolizes unity and pride for Switzerland. The significance of this artwork is further emphasized by its proximity to Europe's highest railway station, Jungfraujoch station. Perched at an astonishing altitude of 3,454 meters (11,332 feet), it stands as a testament to human ingenuity in conquering extreme terrains. This photograph captures both man-made and natural wonders harmoniously coexisting. It serves as a reminder that art has no boundaries when it comes to celebrating achievements and creating awe-inspiring moments in even the most remote corners of our planet. Through his creative vision and technical mastery, Gerry Hofstetter has transformed this landscape into an ethereal canvas where culture meets nature. This image encapsulates not just an anniversary celebration but also evokes feelings of wonderment and appreciation for both human accomplishments and Mother Nature herself
