Celebrates the profound and incredibly diverse continent. This title incorporates the photographs from "Revelations: 365 Thoughts from Latin America", presented here in large format.
A hymn to beauty, Latin America celebrates the profound and incredibly diverse South American continent and its neighboring islands in all their color and gaiety. This title presents in a large format the richest images from photographer Olivier Föllmi’s travels through many countries, including Mexico, Colombia, Guatemala, Brazil, Equador, the Amazon, Peru, Bolivia, and Chile. The book begins with a reference text by Uruguayan author Juan Carlos Mondragón and ends with a more intimate text by the photographer himself. Virginie de Borchgrave, a specialist in Latin American culture, has written the extremely detailed captions that illuminate each photograph. The first book to exhibit South American culture in all its glory, Latin America is a living fresco, a tribute to a continent that has inspired the imagination for generations.

After spending twenty years photographing the Himalayas, he brought back the adventures of a lifetime in images that went on to tour the world. Since 2003 he has travelled across the planet with his assistants to capture its richness, beauty and diversity, and has assembled in images a portrait of the world's humanity. As he says, 'I am a transporter of emotions that testify just how rich and beautiful the world can be, once we have decided to view it from this angle'. The photographer for the collection Wisdom of Humanity, Olivier Follmi is, after twenty-three books, one of our foremost photographers.
