AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exceptional signed copy by Sebastião Salgado from the 74-page portfolio on “Le Monde des Parfums” published in the German magazine DU (issue 10 / 1991). 46 black-and-white photographs, including 12 double-page spreads and 19 full-page images, cover featuring a photograph of Salgado.

One might be surprised to see Salgado address this theme of perfume, but he primarily approaches it from the angle of labor. First, agricultural work with the cultivation of flowers; then distillation in large steel vats (alembics) and the complex formulation of the perfume. Finally, glassmaking and crystal work to present the perfume. This therefore represents a lot of labor for a product that evaporates in an agreeable way.

Copy in excellent condition (like new). A book from my personal collection kept with the greatest care. Shipping protected with reinforced packaging and guaranteed international tracked postage. In case of multiple purchases, possible group shipment with reimbursement of any excess postage paid via Paypal.
