Description from the seller
In 2001 Nick Brandt began an ambitious photographic project: a book trilogy that pays homage to the dwindling natural splendor of East Africa. By focusing on some of the last large populations of megafauna worldwide—elephants, giraffes, lions, gorillas, and their kin—he created two of the most influential photobooks of the new century: *On This Earth* (2005) and *A Shadow Falls* (2009). His iconic portraits of these majestic animals bear witness to an empathy typically reserved for human subjects. The magnificent volume *On This Earth, A Shadow Falls* brings together the most striking images from Brandt's first two books along with the accompanying essays. As a tour de force of book design, this is the first volume about Brandt's work to adequately reproduce the outstanding quality of his remarkable large-format prints—characterized by velvety blacks and nuanced tonalities. He is currently completing the final volume of his trilogy, which documents the fate of East Africa's large animals. The book is still sealed in its original packaging and unread. Collector's edition
