The Infinite Tulip is a sumptious collection of phoptographs that showcases the extraordinary variety of forms that tulips have been bred to embody. Anyone who sees Feinstein's remarkable images will understand the reason for the Dutch tulip mania of the seventeenth century. An introduction by Feinstein explains his passion for photographing nature's exquisite gifts, and captions throughout provide both the Latin and popular names for each tulip. Published simultaneously with The Infinite Rose.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
...the most jaw-dropping close-ups...Shot against a stark black background and accompanied only by the flower name, the flowers burst to the fore-front, bright in hue and voluptuous in form. These are the types of photos that one can pull out and frame. The books will remind readers why flowers are so symbolic of tender sentiments PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
