Provence Photopocket / color/

No other region of France has been a greater source of inspiration to writers and artists than Provence. Its herb-scented hills and vivid landscapes, all of which seem to be bathed in perpetual sunlight and surrounded by water, have fired the imaginations of the likes of van Gogh, Picasso, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Marcel Pagnol among others. In this superb collection of color photographs, Steffen Lipp captures the sublime beauty of this cultural landscape and poetically transforms it into a symbol of the spiritual and the universal.
