Publisher's Description
Through the photographs in this book, Bernard Plossu plunges us into the heart of unreal calm; from this surprising new harmony emerges an almost Eastern charm. Landscapes and pastoral scenes, the images in this book return us to the great romanticism of the XIXe century. True 'state of place' photographs of sites located on the shores of the lakes d'Annecy, Le Bourget and Léman, this work reflects the particular atmosphere of the Haute-Savoie and Savoie Lakes. The photographs were taken for the Conservatiore du Littoral, an organization with the mission to drive land policy making, ensure the conservation of natural sites and promote environmental heritage.
