Those who have never had the privilege of visiting
Africa can take solace in this splendid pictorial journey
across the immense and magnificent continent..
A worthy companion to Föllmi’s lovely Offerings
for Humanity series, which celebrates the day-to-day
spirituality of an entire continent throughout the
year, Africa follows India and
Homage to the Himalayas in assembling the lensman’s
most spectacular pictures of this rich and diverse
land.
From the deserts of Namibia to the savannah of Cameroon,
from the Himba shepherds to the Peul nomads, this collection
of two hundred images takes readers on a voyage
of discovery through the heart of African life and thought,
revealing a mosaic of cultures and peoples with beauty
and depth.
