Synopsis
With his meditative landscape photographs, which have an almost calligraphic quality, Seoul-based Bae Bien-U is one of Korea's best known artists, and has influenced a generation of photographers during his many years of teaching. He first rose to prominence in his country with his series--ongoing for the past two decades--depicting pine groves, which are plentiful, as the pine is Korea's national tree, representing longevity. Beginning with a selection of images taken near Gyeongju's Silla Dynasty burial mounds, this stunning large-format volume assembles images from the entire series, which were shot exclusively in natural light, both day and night. Natural effects like fog and filtered sunlight add to the expressionistic quality of the images, which recall Western Romanticism but reflect a characteristically Korean visual vocabulary. This volume is published concurrently with an exhibition at London's Phillips de Pury & Company.

- a***p (8)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.
- 5***8 (18)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI am always a little nervous when ordering books off of eBay but this seller has provided me with an EXCELLENT purchasing experience! The packaging was superior and I am grateful because this is a signed first edition and we all know how the post office can be at times. The Shipping was timely and the item actually arrived quicker than expected. The item EXCEEDED the description. It is stunning. I have dropped it off at my antiquarian for authors signature verification but the value is high.What Negro Wants by Rayford W Logan 1944 (HC/DJ) (#335500668720)
- l***a (3698)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent seller! Book arrived earlier than expected, safely packaged, and in wonderful condition, especially for a 165 year old book. The description said to expect foxing and a loose binding, but the book I received had only a few minor foxing marks and a sturdy binding with just the tiniest bit of wobble. Much better than expected --and at a great price too. Many thanks to this wonderful 5 star+ seller!Perfect Gentleman; Or, Etiquette & Eloquence by A Gentleman HC 1860 (#396112941293)
