Mont Blanc
1892
Félix Vallotton captures the majestic Mont-Blanc with bold, graphic lines that feel almost like a stylized cartoon, blending Symbolist drama with modern graphic design. Created in 1892, this piece showcases his signature style of high contrast, turning the rugged Alps into a rhythmic pattern of black ink. As a master of the woodcut revival, Vallotton proved that prints could be just as expressive as paintings. The stylized sun bursting over the peaks adds a theatrical touch, making the mountain look less like a physical place and more like a powerful symbol of nature's raw energy.
