Vrettacos, Costas & De Nora, Emmanuela [Kostas Vrettakos] : Greek Doors [ Volume II]

Tria Phylla, Athens, 1982

An excursion into an exotic world. The hundreds of closed doors photographed in these two books were once inseparable elements of human life, connecting the private and the public, both protecting and revealing the human scenes behind them. The ravages of time, the scarred wood and pitted bronze, no less than the locks, bars and chains, are eloquent reminders of the decades of conflict (indeed the centuries of conflict) which have battered these islands. The photographs, all in color, are moving and lovely.Translation into English by Angelika Gimms.142p. illus.[col] index, decorated end papers. Book. Book Condition: As New. Binding: Hardcover.
