Peter MATHIS is known for his beautiful mountain scenes and in this photo book, 'Snow', captures the essence of snow in black and white. These breathtaking duotone images transform a traditional alpine landscape into picturesque canvases that are alternately otherworldly, sensual, haunting and heavenly. The tracks of the skiers zigzag through the powder and the windswept snow waves like desert sand.
