From Lake Geneva to the Mediterranean, the great crossing of the French Alps
Samivel, "the poet of the Alps", celebrated the high mountains and their snow-capped peaks in his watercolours and posters. Nature appears serene and infinite. Man's presence is pushed into the background: tiny climbers cross a grandiose, calm mountain landscape. The use of pastel shades, light azure blue and white, reinforces the feeling of purity and silence. The mountain is the land of freedom, the place of the free man.
