- Description
- In the foreground two mountain climbers are making their way through a series of blue-green ice blocks. To the viewer’s immediate right: the back of a climber, the thigh of his right leg, his bent left leg (in the act of climbing up), his left arm bent at the elbow with his hand resting on his brown ice axe. He is wearing a red down-filled parka with the hood up. The jacket has two badges on the upper left arm; the lower, larger badge is black and white and the upper badge is the Canadian flag in red and white. He is also wearing black mitts, brown ski pants, and on the partial view of his left leg and foot, red gaiters, brown boots with red laces and crampons. Ahead of him to the viewer’s left, another man is in the act of climbing, his body is turning to the left and he appears to be looking off in the distance. He is wearing eye goggles, a blue parka with grey fur around the collar and bottom, a red head cover, grey mitts and red gaiters. His right hand is resting on his ice axe. He appears to be a guide (Sherpa) because of his dark skin. To his right, and directly in front of the first climber and the ice blocks, is a towering serac of blue-green ice. Three of its jagged peaks at the top extend beyond our view. The snow on the viewer’s left is blue and white and there are exposed brown and green, snow-covered rocks to the viewer’s left. The sky above is a very deep blue.
