With the special exhibition Wildlife Photographer of the Year, the Natural History Museum Basel presents the 100 best nature photographs in the world - exclusively in Switzerland.
The exhibition shines a light on powerful and fascinating images that capture impressive animal behaviors, special species and breathtaking landscapes. The images use the unique emotional power of photography to captivate the audience. They tell numerous stories that challenge us to take a closer look and take action to protect nature.
The Natural History Museum Basel has already shown six years of the exhibition since 2012. This year, the exhibition will once again be on display exclusively in Switzerland at the Natural History Museum.
As an accompanying event, the museum is once again organizing its own nature photo competition Snapshot.
