Sebastião Salgado: On Birds (Des oiseaux)

For this sixteenth title in the Des oiseaux collection, Sebastião Salgado has assembled an exceptional collection of images from his archive, celebrating a world populated by albatrosses, eagles, parrots, gannets and other rare species. Erik Orsenna's accompanying text evokes our close ties with the world of birds, and an interview between Salgado and Philippe Séclier bears witness to Salgado's relationship with the animal kingdom. Includes many previously unpublished photographs. For over thirty years, Sebastião Salgado has been photographing, on land and at sea, in the most remote regions of the world, from the Amazon, Asia and Africa to the icy spaces of Antarctica. More than half of the photographs are previously unpublished, and the book is a veritable ode to the beauty of our planet.
