Lily of the valley
Danger of death! Florence.
Gyantse. Tibet. Gyantse.
The princess Pema Chöki Namgyal
Wandering musician
Tuff quarry
Laundry day
Smile in the sea
Two arches
Greetings to the guest
Children are running on Lake Kutcharo
The struggle against nothing
Thirst for knowledge
Ready to go down
Mother Shining Knowledge
Down, definitely down
I rest between one dive and the other.
Gigantic crevasse
The Dukadak step
Ice cave
A very tough climb
Little coffee-colored girl
Rubble at the entrance of the Old City
The face of the bodhisattva devoured by the forest
Sky with little sheep
The genius of the clouds
Clouds of fire

The snow bridge on which the three Italian climbers ascend allows Maraini to enhance the sense of depth of the bell-shaped crevasse opening at their feet into a dark abyss seemingly without end.
