Book Description

Jan 19 2007

"A lovely volume whose simplicity and elegance accentuate rather than overshadow this visual introduction to the beauty of Canada."
-Photovision

A flash of lightning explodes across a summer sky; a sudden winter storm descends on an otherwise tranquil coastal bay; in a moment of absolute stillness, the surface of a mirror-like lake reflects the world around it.

The Canadian Landscape is a collection of more than 125 sweeping images by internationally acclaimed photographer J.A. Kraulis. Each stunning picture tells the tale of a vast country and of a photographer's relationship with it. The text consists of a concise introduction and short, descriptive captions that accompany each photograph.

The book is organized east to west by region, covering:

  • The Atlantic and sub Arctic regions
  • The St. Lawrence and Great Lakes regions
  • The Prairies
  • The Rocky Mountains
  • The West coast rainforests and the Pacific Ocean.

The photographs capture a range of views and portray vast, uninhabited vistas of exceptional grandeur.

The bilingual text and captions are in English and French.

Review

Catch[es] geography and the elements at the instant they are extraordinary ... [an] exquisite portfolio of 150 photographs. J.A. Kraulis is to Canadian photography what the Group of Seven was to Canadian landscape painting ... After leafing through this lush book, all I can say is, 'Oh, Canada!' Kraulis's 150 portraits would be stunning in any event; infused with the photographer's sense of onrushing time, they're magical.

Truly a thing of beauty, this book is sure to become an instant treasure ... A copy of this book would be a wonderful addition to your library and an inspiration to your soul. (C.A. Boylan Shutterbug 2002)

Kraulis has compiled a lovely volume whose simplicity and elegance accentuates rather than overshadows this visual introduction to the beauty of Canada. A beautifully illustrated book of pictures which serve to show a photographer's relationship with the subject, and will inspire.
