빙하를 포함한 고산 지형 by Edward Theodore Compton, 1894

Edward Theodore Compton captures the breathtaking grandeur of the Alps in this 1894 masterpiece, where towering, snow-capped peaks pierce through dramatic, swirling clouds. In the foreground, a peaceful alpine meadow offers a stark contrast to the massive glacier carving its way down the valley, complete with grazing cows and a rustic wooden hut. Known for his meticulous Alpine landscapes, Compton blends the raw, untamed power of nature with the quiet, pastoral life of mountain dwellers, a hallmark of 19th-century realism. It’s a scene that makes you want to pack a bag and hike right into that crisp mountain air!
