Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Chamonix alpine terrain?

Alpine ibex live on the steep rocky terrain above Chamonix, typically at altitudes between 1,800 and 3,200 metres. They are most commonly seen on the high ridges and cliff faces around the Aiguilles Rouges and in the protected areas above the valley, where they have recovered strongly since near-extinction in the 19th century.

What does this print show?

The print captures an alpine ibex at sunrise above Chamonix in portrait format — the animal on the high terrain with the Mont Blanc Massif glowing in dawn alpenglow behind.

How did ibex almost become extinct and how did they recover?

Alpine ibex were hunted nearly to extinction across the Alps by the early 19th century — by 1820 fewer than 100 animals survived, all in the Gran Paradiso area of Italy. King Victor Emmanuel II of Sardinia protected them as a royal hunting reserve, which saved the species. Reintroduction programmes in the 20th century have since established populations across the Alps, and ibex are now common above Chamonix, with several hundred animals in the Aiguilles Rouges reserve.
