Pierre Tairraz was the fourth in line of the Tairraz family of mountain photographers, following in the footsteps of his father George, his father George, and his father Joseph.
Between 1857 and 2000, four photographers, from father to son, invent and transmit the art of mountain photography. Their family name is Tairraz. Pierre was an exceptional climber and worked for 40 years photographing mountains, particularly the French Alps.
Condition: generally very good; a few little edge tears and a slight marginal loss to top (all of which will disappear under a mount when framed).
