Artist's Comments
The Tibetan name for Mount Everest is Chomolungma or Qomolangma, which means "Saint Mother", and the Chinese transliteration is Zhūmùlǎngmǎ Fēng , which refers to Earth Mother; the Chinese translation is Shèngmǔ Fēng, which refers to Holy Mother. According to English accounts of the mid-19th century, the local name in Darjeeling for Mount Everest was Deodungha, or "Holy Mountain".
In 1865, the mountain was officially given its English name by the Royal Geographical Society after being proposed by Andrew Waugh, the British Surveyor General of India. Waugh chose to name the mountain after George Everest, first using the spelling Mont Everest, and then Mount Everest.

To leave is to die a little; It is to die to what one loves.
One leaves behind a little of oneself, at any hour, any place.
