Animalia Book By Henry Horenstein

Animalia Book By Henry Horenstein

This is a beautiful book filled with inspiring images of animals. Photographer Henry Horenstein used grainy black and white film, a macro lens, and printed in sepia to avoid documenting the animals. Instead, Horenstein says “I choose to look closely and abstractly—to see my subjects for their inherent beauty, oddness, mystery.” His success is shown with these sometimes hazy, sometimes very sharp images showing off the animals’ texture, patterns, and unique characteristics. The book is bound in a hard fabric cover with attached print of a ray, making it a perfect book to lay out on your coffee table.
