Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good-dust jacket. 0821215485. With frontispiece and plates after Paul Caponigro. Dustjacket in plastic protective cover. Slight wear to spine, covers & corners. Dustjacket somewhat worn with some chipping to top margin.; "The Wise Silence: Photographs by Paul Caponigro" is a captivating collection of black-and-white photographs that illustrate the profound connection between the natural world and spiritual realms. Published in 1983, this book showcases Caponigro's mastery in capturing the sublime and often mystical elements of landscapes and natural details. His images, ranging from serene forest scenes to the intricate textures of plant life, are rendered with meticulous attention to light and shadow, creating a contemplative and transcendent viewing experience. Caponigro's work in "The Wise Silence" is not just about photography; it is a meditation on silence, nature, and the deeper, quieter spaces they occupy in our lives. The book is a visual journey that invites viewers to find stillness and meaning beyond the surface of the subject matter, reflecting the photographer's philosophical exploration through his lens. This book is a part of the photography library of Chris Steele-Perkins, whose work with Magnum Photos has similarly explored profound themes, albeit often within the human condition. Steele-Perkins has a history of capturing the essence of cultural and social dynamics across the world, particularly in regions like Africa, Afghanistan, and his home country, the UK. Owning "The Wise Silence" reflects his deep appreciation for photography that goes beyond mere observation to probe deeper meanings and universal connections. His role in Magnum has been characterized by a commitment to document reality with a compassionate and artistic eye, values that resonate with Caponigro's approach to the natural world. Steele-Perkins' inclusion of this book in his collection underscores a shared belief in the power of photography to evoke introspection and a sense of greater connection to the world.; Folio; 264 pages.
