Product Description
Universally desired and uniquely experienced, love finds expression in every land and culture. This enchanting new book celebrates the depth and diversity of love—at many moments in history, and at every human age—in an exquisite collection of photographs from National Geographic’s famous archives and beyond. Each picture tells a tantalizing story and captures an intimate, unforgettable glimpse of love’s many facets, from courtship to friendship to charity and more.
As life-affirming and surprising as its namesake, the book is a beautiful keepsake for lovers and a must-have for all who admire classic photography. Masters of the art, such as Henri Cartier-Bresson, Elliott Erwitt, August Sander, Mary Ellen Mark, Eugene Richards, and William Allard, are among those who have traveled the globe to capture love’s nuances. Showcasing evocative black-and-white portraits and gorgeous color images, Love follows in the tradition of bestselling photography titles including Work, Through the Lens, In Focus, and Wide Angle.
More satisfying than candy and more affordable than a bouquet of flowers, Love is perfect for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, weddings, birthdays—and every occasion for gifts between those who love.

Can't go wrong for the price! March 17, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
As I have come to expect from NG, the reproduction quality, size and price were great. This book contains photographs taken all around the world from famous photographers such as David Alan Harvey, interspersed with essays behind their provenance; e.g., the one about two men from Kabul having their passport photo taken while wearing make-up, in defiance of the Taliban (who banned photography except for identification purposes). Not all the photographs are recent (or grim); good selection!
