About the Item

Salgado’s masterpiece: Genesis, Earth eternal. A photographic homage to our planet in its natural state. Two volumes bound in full leather, limited to five editions of 100 numbered and signed sets. Every set comes with a gelatin silver print, signed by Sebastião Salgado and printed under his personal supervision. “My love letter to the planet.” Sebastião Salgado. Art edition D-No. 301-400. Marine iguana, Gala´pagos, Ecuador, 2004. Gelatin silver print. Measures: 33.5 x 25 cm/13 x 10 in. (image), 40 x 30 cm/16 x 12 in. (sheet). (Frame not included). The art edition comes with a book Stand designed by Tadao Ando. The Genesis book stand was conceived by Japanese architect Tadao Ando, the only living person to have won architecture’s four most prestigious prizes. Ando’s simple and innovative design consists of two “twin” pieces of wood, bound together with leather, into which a third piece of wood can be slotted to form a sturdy, elegant display. Fine print: Genesis is printed on a traditional coated 250 gsm art paper from the German paper mill Scheufelen that is no longer available on the market and was produced specially for Taschen. The black and white pictures are reproduced in a four-color separation process, with two blacks and two shades of grey; the density of the blacks achieved rivals that of the finest silver gelatin prints. GENESIS was printed and bound in an Italian workshop utilizing traditional craftsmanship techniques that are unique worldwide in this field, using Italian Cialinen fabric for the cover. The Ando book Stand was hand made in Spain, and the leather originates from Britain. Precious cargo: The two volumes come carefully packaged along with the stand in a robust custom-made wooden crate to preserve and protect them. Attention: total weight is 59 kg (130 lb)! Art Edition limited to 100 numbered and signed sets. Two volumes bound in full leather. Every set includes a book stand in cherrywood veneer designed by Tadao Ando.

Endangered Paradise Sebastião Salgado on the traces of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon rainforest Sebastião Salgado traveled the Brazilian Amazon and photographed the unparalleled beauty of this extraordinary region for six years: the forest, the rivers, the mountains, the people who live there—an irreplaceable treasure of humanity. In the book’s foreword Salgado writes: “For me, it is the last frontier, a mysterious universe of its own, where the immense power of nature can be felt as nowhere else on earth. Here is a forest stretching to infinity that contains one-tenth of all living plant and animal species, the world’s largest single natural laboratory.” This connection to nature is echoed in Renzo Piano...
