- When the glaciers have melted
Original artwork description
Looking like something from a Wes Anderson film, the Hotel Belvedere sits high up in the Swiss Alps on a hair-pin bend of the Furka pass.
The Pass. and the hotel, can be seen in the James Bond film, Goldfinger.
The hotel closed a few years ago as the Rhone Glacier on it's doorstep retreated into the distance.
Continuing a series of this hotel, this is a look to a possible bleak future when the glaciers have melted due to Global warming. The hotel is in ruins and the landscape is barren.
It's happening already - my local ski resort - a small place where the children learnt to ski, has now permanently closed most of its runs due to lack of snow.
This is a high quality oil painting on canvas.
The sides are finished in a neutral grey and it is supplied with eyelets and cord so it is ready to hang straight out of the box.
The painting can be also be framed in a ready-made frame as it is a standard size, or one made-to-measure.
The painting has been varnished for protection.
