A record of an ascent of the Matterhorn filmed by Mario Piacenza in 1911. It was filmed in the summer judging by the lack of snow, and some of the shots are truly breathtaking. It also seems kind of strange to see these gentlemen climbers dressed as if for a stroll in the park. Of course, Piacenza's climb was more difficult than those of the companions whose efforts he recorded as he had to carry his unwieldy camera and tripod.
