William Mitchell, of John Mitchell Fine Paintings, is proud to present K2 Artistic Expeditions: James Hart Dyke, an exhibition of recent paintings and drawings made during British artist James Hart Dyke’s gruelling 2025 journey through Pakistan’s Karakoram mountains, to paint the daunting mountain, K2.
Hart Dyke (b.1966), specialises in dramatic mountain landscapes and last year became the first person to paint K2, the world’s second highest mountain (8,611 metres/28,251 ft), en plein air, and the mythical Karakoram Mountains in Baltistan, Pakistan, capturing the 40-mile-long Baltoro Glacier and many of its peaks in a remarkable series of oil paintings and watercolour sketches.
K2 Artistic Expeditions brings 40 of Hart Dyke’s evocative paintings and drawings to the heart of London, transporting the viewer to some of earth’s most awe-inspiring vistas.
Following the London exhibition, Hart Dyke’s Karakoram paintings will travel to the Forte di Bard Museum of the Alps, Valle d’Aosta, Italy (12 December 2026 – 31 October 2027) where they will be displayed alongside 20 of Vittorio Sella’s photographs, in the exhibition K2 Spedizioni Artistiche: James Hart Dyke e Vittorio Sella.
