Cardinaux is mostly sought out for his winter scenes of Switzerland. But his soft, water-color style was equally effective in presenting the beauties of other Swiss seasons to the travelling public. This series of the seasons depicts landscapes and people with a languid grace and subtle beauty that was a hallmark of his style. English version.
