Photographs by Pat & Rosemarie Keough
From the Publisher:
Pat and Rosemarie Keough's Antarctic photographs comprise one
of the most stunning and diverse portfolios ever assembled about
this great white continent. The variety of their imagery encompasses
wildlife, landscapes, abstract patterns in nature and touches
of man from the 'heroic era' through the heyday of whaling to
the present. Geographically, the images transport one from the
windswept polar plateau of the interior to the majestic, mountainous
coast, and from the multitude of off-lying islands to the icy
seas and surrounding stormy Southern Ocean. This award-winning
photography will rekindle vivid memories for those fortunate to
have personally experience these marvelous regions. For arm chair
traveler who delights in knowing that such wilderness continues
to exist, the volume is a stress-free way to experience the wonders
of Antarctica, with all its savagery and beauty. For connoisseurs
of photographic art and for collectors of fine books, Antarctica
will greatly please, as the edition is unequivocally artistic,
elegant and archival.
The Book:
Elegantly bound by hand using skills and techniques that date
to the 15th and 16th centuries and enhanced by luxurious archival
materials including Chieftain goat leather, French flocked velvet,
and Dutch and Irish linen.
This 27-pound tome has now won 21
awards for excellence for fine-edition books, photography, printing,
and design.
