Mission to Caucasus

After the successful expedition to Karakorum and the Baltoro glacier, photographer Fabiano Ventura and his team of experts continue their mission to study the effects of climate change on the world’s largest glaciers. Their latest expedition takes them to the Georgian Caucasus, an area of incomparable beauty rendered inaccessible for decades by the Soviet regime and thus still unspoiled and timeless. For the first time, photographic evidence gathered by the explorers of the late nineteenth century are compared with the same shots taken by Fabiano Ventura, then scientifically analysed to determine the “health” of some of the largest glaciers in the world.
