Vittorio Sella's Mountain Photography Exhibition Set for 2025
Vittorio Sella, a photographer who loved mountains, took amazing pictures of the world's tallest peaks.
His photos show the Himalayas, including Kanchenjunga and K2, and also places in Africa.
An exhibition of his work is going to be shown in India in August 2025.
Sella used special techniques to take clear pictures, even in difficult places like the high mountains.
The pictures show how beautiful and important the mountains are.
They're like a record of the mountains and the changes they've seen over time, and they show Sella's skill and love for the mountains.
An exhibition of Vittorio Sella's photographs of the world's highest peaks will be on display from August 8 to September 7, 2025.
The exhibition features photographs of Kanchenjunga, K2, and Mount Ruwenzori.
The exhibition is curated by Hugh Thomson and includes a walkthrough led by Gilles Tillotson.
Sella was an Italian mountaineer and photographer who used innovative techniques like photogrammetry.
The exhibition includes photographs from expeditions to the Himalayas and Central Africa.
