The images in this book provide an overview of the present stage of Luca Cattaneo's work, which he first undertook as a press photographer contributing for decades to the world's major news agencies, before turning to photo-reportage projects that offer an original and personal take on different places around the globe. The fifty shots in this selection provide an account of the harsh and isolated realm of Iceland, whose ancestral mystique is revisited by views that reveal the hidden clues of the land. Cattaneo documents these breathtaking landscapes with an approach that is keenly realistic, but which also betrays a poetic vein that elicits a geography of the soul's responses.
