London!

Descriere

In this epic volume, renowned photographer Marc Hoberman presents London in a way never seen before! Through a visual journey of over 280 large-scale colour photographs, London and its surrounds is showcased as it really is: towering landmarks fill the book s pages, below them London s life-blood - it s people satiate the city s streets. Beefeaters, Camden Town punks, bobby s-on-the-beat, they re all here but so are the everyday Londoners that make up the city s true character - tourists scrunching their mouths at tube maps, public schoolboys with dishevelled uniforms/perfect hair, harried crowds on Christmas-time Oxford Street and a quick mobile text while queuing for a red telephone box. Complemented by dramatic double-page aerial photographs and text by award-winning author John Andrew, LONDON! is a true homage to the world s capital and sets a new benchmark for the genre.
