"Les Dents du Midi" is an oil on canvas painting by the Swiss landscape artist Alexandre Calame (1810–1864), who was renowned for his romantic and dramatic portrayals of the Swiss Alps. Created in 1844, the painting depicts the rugged mountain range known as Les Dents du Midi, located in the Chablais Alps in the Swiss canton of Valais. This particular work is one of Calame's most celebrated pieces, exemplifying his mastery in capturing the sublime and majestic qualities of the alpine landscape.

The painting measures 92.7 x 73.7 cm and is part of a collection at the Kunsthaus Zürich in Switzerland. In "Les Dents du Midi," Calame employs his characteristic attention to detail and use of light to dramatize the natural scene. The composition is carefully structured to guide the viewer's eye towards the towering peaks, which are bathed in a luminous glow that contrasts with the darker tones of the foreground. This technique not only emphasizes the grandeur of the mountains but also evokes a sense of awe and the sublime, a common theme in romantic landscape painting.

Calame's work was influential in shaping the perception of the Swiss Alps during the 19th century, and "Les Dents du Midi" is a prime example of how his art contributed to the romanticization of these landscapes. The painting is often discussed in the context of the broader European Romantic movement, which celebrated nature's power and beauty as a source of spiritual and emotional inspiration.

As a notable piece in Calame's oeuvre, "Les Dents du Midi" continues to be admired for its technical skill and its evocative portrayal of the Swiss alpine environment. It remains an important work for scholars studying the history of landscape painting and the cultural significance of the Alps in Swiss national identity.
