These cathedrals of ice come to us from millennia-old glaciers, and reign supreme over the austral and boreal oceans. These cathedrals are bewitching and hallucinating sculptures feared by navigators! [...] At the mercy of the currents, these gigantic frozen vessels float, drift and die, after a long agony, in the waters of warmer latitudes. [...] So close to us, this world of ice regulates our climate, and these ephemeral cathedrals are multiplying, a warning signal for our societies mired in our daily lives.
