Description
Crossing Snow Field reveals the measured advance of horse-drawn sleighs traversing St. Moritz powder fields in March 1963, their dark silhouettes forming a perfect diagonal across the white Swiss canvas. The procession moves with deliberate purpose through the Alpine expanse, each sleigh maintaining its place in this kinetic ballet of traditional mountain transport. Here, Aarons captured not the usual revelry but the quieter poetry of pre-mechanized travel, when reaching the next valley required patience and the steady rhythm of hooves through snow.
