Sebastião Salgado. GENESIS

Genesis is an eye-opening collection of breathtaking black-and-white photographs capturing nature, animals, and Indigenous Peoples that have yet to be touched by modern society. This eight-year-long project by Sebastião Salgado, a renowned Brazilian photographer, is an ode to the planet and a desperate plea to preserve our world. The book is divided into five chapters: Planet South, Sanctuaries, Africa, Northern Spaces, Amazonia, and Pantanal – each with its unique geographical beauty. Genesis boasts a range of visual wonders, from the penguins of Antarctica to the volcanoes of Central Africa, and everything in-between. The book is a masterpiece created by Salgado as his love letter to the planet Earth, which he captured with an unparalleled deftness of black and white photography.
