Description from the seller

This is a rare early publication of Kenna’s French work, combining personal narrative and evocative imagery in a limited‑availability edition.

The book features 59 striking black-and-white photographs documenting Kenna’s explorations across France — from the streets of Paris and formal classical gardens to coastal landscapes, cemeteries, and abbeys such as Mont Saint-Michel — capturing the country’s diverse scenery in his characteristic contemplative style, and reflecting his deep sensitivity to light, atmosphere, and place.


SIGNED, DATED and INSCRIBED by the author on the title page.

- Published by RAM, Tokyo (2012) - 1st edition. Out of print.
- This book features a special rope-bound binding, inspired by traditional Japanese stab binding techniques.
- 28 x 22 cm. 64 pages. 59 images.

The book is in very good overall condition. The tissue paper shows minor wrinkles and small tears due to its delicate nature, and the label attached to the cord is slightly creased. The interior pages and all other elements are in perfect condition.

Fast, carefully packaged, and fully tracked shipping to ensure safe delivery.
