Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this book with the hope that it would provide inspiriation for painting .. and YES it did. On every page is a gorgeous photo of Provence and the surrounding areas. Wonderful scenic vistas , vignettes of life in France. This would make a splendid coffee table book as well as the inspiration to paint or visit the beautiful countryside.
Well worth the price. A beautiful picture book indeed.
Summary of Provence: 500 Photos
Anyone who has visited Provence knows that it is more than a place of spectacular beauty; it is also a way of life. Attracting travelers from across the globe, Provence offers the visitor peace and tranquility in the striking beauty of landscapes ablaze with color: from ocher hills and lavender fields, to stark cliffs and swaying olive trees. Gerard Sioen, an internationally recognized photographer and himself an inhabitant of Provence, takes the reader on a personal photographical tour of Provence's most celebrated sights. He showcases the region's wealth of architectural styles?from contemporary villas to village farmhouses.Sioen plays hide-and-seek with the native mountain goats, sheep, and horses, and immortalizes an apricot sunset above a terracotta hilltop town. Clusters of men try their luck at petanques on the village square, where a few hours earlier a soap maker was offering her wares at the outdoor market.
This stunning array of 500 photographs revels in all the charm of this magnificent and renowned travel destination.
