Anne-Laure Toubel

Unique photo of the famous French montaineer - climber MAURICE HERZOG  (15 January 1919 – 13 December 2012)

He led the 1950 French Annapurna  expedition that first climbed a peak over 8000m, the Himalayan mountain Annapurna.
The ascent was all the more remarkable because the peak was climbed all within one season; and  without the use of supplemental oxygen, and this at the first attempt.  

The two-week retreat from the peak proved very challenging,  Herzog lost his gloves near the summit and a night spent bivouacked in a crevasse on the descent with one sleeping bag for four climbers (Lachenal, Gaston Rébuffat, Lionel Terray, and Herzog) resulted in severe frostbite, with consequent gangrene requiring the expedition doctor to perform emergency amputations in the field.[ Both summit climbers lost all of their toes and Herzog most of his fingers. 

This photo shows at the assent, where he has still all his fingers.

Attached on the photo / paper dutch pressrelease of the documentary

He wrote a best-selling book about the expedition,  Annapurna
