The book tells the story of the personal, artistic and friendly ties forged between Giacometti and Giovanni Segantini, who was his teacher and who painted in the same territory, but also with two of his contemporaries and friends, Cuno Amiet and Ferdinand Hodler, for whom the discovery of these landscapes was also a powerful factor in stylistic evolution and creative emulation.

Other artists gravitating around these four protagonists are presented, in particular the sculptor Alberto Giacometti, son of Giovanni, and the photographer Andrea Garbald, witness to this emulation in the heart of the Alps.

Artists: Cuno Amiet, Joseph Beuys, Alberto Giacometti, Giovanni Giacometti, Ferdinand Hodler, Florio Puenter, Giovanni Segantini, Kurt Sigrist, Albert Steiner, Hannes Vogel, Franz Wanner, Rémy Zaugg, Dominik Zehnder
