2012 first edition large format hardcover with dust jacket and 148 pages in very good condition.

For years Daniel Naudé has traversed South Africas countryside recording his travels as a way of understanding South Africa and its complexities. Among his most arresting subjects are animals, and the collection of images in this book is as beautiful as it is intriguing. The penetrating stare of a feral Africanis dog; the regal dignity of enormous horned cattle; farmers bottle-feeding a lamb, clutching a young donkey, or stolidly leading their goats to pastureall are photographed against the backdrop of South Africas rolling hills, grasslands, and seashore. As Naudés muted colors contrast with the animals stark silhouettes, viewers are compelled to share his intrepid curiosity about the nature of human dominion over animals, and about how the histories of all living things are intertwined and indivisible.
