AUTHOR: Heinrich van den Berg
PUBLICATION DATE: September 2010
BINDING: Hard cover
WEB PRICE: R490 VAT inclusive
 

Art of Nature has no particular story, nor does it make any particular
statement – except to highlight the elements of art to be found in nature
and wildlife subjects as seen through the eye of the lens. The captions
reinforce the message conveyed through the photography and lead the
reader to see beneath the surface of things, both goading and teaching
the reader how to take a closer look at the natural world and so begin to
comprehend that creation is far more than it seems.

matt art paper, hard cover bound in fine cloth, gold foil stamp, pictorial
