Paysage d'Hiver (en: "Winter Landscape") is an ambient black metal project from Burgdorf, canton of Bern, Switzerland. Formed in 1997, the sole member is Wintherr—an alias of Tobias Möckl—who is also the frontman of Darkspace as Wroth. Wintherr has cited the Burzum albums Hvis lyset tar oss and Filosofem, among others, as an inspiration for his music. All of Paysage d'Hiver's own material is released through Kunsthall Produktionen, a label Wintherr runs together with his wife.
All of the project's releases are connected in that they tell different pieces of a story describing a lone wanderer's experiences through a realm known as "Paysage d'Hiver", from which the project takes its name; the cover art of each work—which, contrary to those of Darkspace, is typically more landscape-oriented and atmospheric than minimalistic and abstract—appears to reflect its respective chapter in the wanderer's journey.
