From millennia-old cave art to world-famous internet sensations,
dogs have inspired artists to strive to capture their loyal
personalities and antics for as long as they've been our furry
friends. This joyous collection celebrates dogs in art, spanning
eras, styles and continents, from the brushes of masters such as
Manet, Toulouse-Lautrec, Sargent, Gauguin, Klee, Picasso and more.
"Swiss explorer and photographer Stefan Forster admits that he is
no stranger to dodging alligators and hiking for weeks in pursuit
of the perfect photo. And an impressive new photobook shows that
his efforts pay off handsomely." - Sarah Holt, Mail Online "This
tome is a potential classic in the making and a masterclass in how
straightforward landscape imagery should be done." - Amateur
Photographer "Stunning pictures...luminous images..." - Examiner
"Unbelievable...just amazing..." - WGN TV Chicago Captured in vivid
colour and magnificent quality, the unique moments that
photographer Stefan Forster discovers in out-of-the-way places in
nature take place on adventurous backcountry trips far from
civilisation, with Forster lugging up to 80 pounds in camera gear
and camping equipment. With enormous enthusiasm and prepared for
anything, he often hikes through remote areas for weeks at a time
on his search for the extraordinary. He has taken long solo kayak
expeditions along Greenland's west coast, hopped from island to
island in Micronesia, and slogged through the swamps of Louisiana
and Texas to find the area's most beautiful cypress trees, dodging
alligators all the while. The results are unique and fascinating
photos. This book presents this young photographer's most beautiful
experiences to date, including everything from rare rainstorms in
the world's driest desert and the Northern Lights shimmering
through icebergs to spectacular shots of the Rocky Mountains.
Forster was one of the first photographers to use state-of-the-art
quadcopter drones, giving his pictures fresh, new perspectives.
Stefan Forster published some of these aerial shots for the first
time in Above the World - Earth Through a Drone's Eye, released by
teNeues in September 2016. The following locations are included in
the book: Switzerland Iceland Greenland Antarctica Peninsula Utah
Colorado South Dakota Louisiana Washington Namibia Westcoast,
Scotland Uganda New Zealand Seychelles La Gomera Tasmania
Philippines Australia Indonesia Text in English, French and German.
