Magic and Divine Nature

The volume shows plants and flowers of our planet in their more intimate elements as pistils, petals, stalks and veins. In the magnificent photos by Andrea Jones vivid forms show curves, volumes and almost animal consistencies that remain deeply fixed in our memory. Sensual orchids, pulsating peonies, corrugated and multi-coloured barks that sound the notes of a magic and divine nature.

A large-format volume that sets us off on a formidable journey across the five continents leading us through forests and prairie, savannas and dizzying peaks. In a mood of sacred contemplation we can admire extremely-beautiful details, captured by a professional and magisterial photographer who, thanks to his superlative skills, turns the most invisible element into a “character” of memorable iconic force.
