Tir a'Mhurain : The Outer Hebrides of Scotland Hardback
by Paul Strand
Hardback
Description
Tir a'Mhurain is a collection of photographs that reflects the impressions gathered by Paul Strand and his wife Hazel during their 3-month visit to the Hebrides in 1945.
Juxtaposing people and landscape, Strand's beautifully sequenced photographs depict the perfect complicity he saw between nature and habitation in their wild terrain.
Whether it is a view of the rocks and the sea or a grinning shepherd boy; scuddling clouds hanging over seaside house or the wrinkled face of an old lady framed by a knitted shawl, Strand's images transcend the ephemeral.
This extended portrait captures the essence and complexity of a singular place.
This is a true masterpiece of photography.
