Beschreibung

From the Assyrian Tree of Life to the Iroquois peoples' Tree of Peace, trees have long played an archetypal role in human culture and spirituality. An integral part of a variety of faiths-from Buddhism and Hinduism to Nordic and aboriginal religions-trees were venerated long before any written historical records existed. This sense of reverence and wonder is beautifully evoked in these vivid images from legendary photographer Art Wolfe. The gift format of his celebrated book Trees, this collection focuses on both individual specimens and entire forests, offering a sweeping yet intimate look at an arboreal world spanning six continents. Accompanying these timeless images, author Gregory McNamee weaves a diverse and global account of the myths, cultures, and traditions that convey the long-standing symbiosis between trees and humans, and renowned ethnobotanist Wade Davis anchors the text with a penetrating introduction.

Über den Autor

Award-winning photographer Art Wolfe has worked on every continent and in hundreds of locations over the course of his forty-year career. His stunning images interpret and record the world's fast-disappearing natural treasures and are a lasting inspiration to those who seek to preserve them. Wolfe's photographs are recognized throughout the world for their mastery of color, composition, and perspective, and his photographic mission is multifaceted--art, wildlife advocacy, and journalism all inform his world. Human Canvas is a synthesis of his talents and expertise, marrying his background in the arts and painting with his photographic skill and firsthand knowledge of indigenous cultures. His other works include Earth Is My Witness, Trees, and Migrations.
