This entire luxurious large-format, 12.25"x 15.5"x 1.5", book is comprised of exquisite photographs of Tahiti. Except, it's not like the many others of its kind --it has a unique vision. The photographer is one of the world's preeminent make-up artists, Francois Nars, the founder of Nars Cosmetics and a beauty mogul. So, not surprisingly, half of the photographs are sensitive portraits capturing the beauty of the Tahitian people and the other half are bewitching seascapes and landscapes of these fairy tale lands presented as in a dream. The images were shot over a ten year period with a large-format camera in rich, highly nuanced black and white and primarily sepia tonality in different shades and tints, all reinforcing the dream state like vision of these fairy tale islands. less
