Více o knize

Riding the clouds through the skies of Ireland, photographer Antonio Attini presents a personal and magical tribute to the Emerald Isle. From above, the rugged land reveals a vibrant palette of colors, where nature's presence prevails over man. Traditional values of land and sea endure, inspiring artists and storytellers alike. This is the Ireland of endless pastures and geometric drystone walls, where cliffs plunge into the blue ocean and islands remain anchored in ancient traditions. The journey begins in Dublin, a capital that has grown while retaining its origins. From here, we explore the country, moving from east to west in search of charming towns and picturesque fishing villages. We soar over peat bogs and barren moors, evoking memories of Celts and Vikings, and reflecting on the history, poverty, and dignified suffering of past centuries. Numerous archaeological sites and mysterious monasteries invite contemplation, where the lives of saints and legendary heroes inspire magical tales. This journey offers myriad facets of reality and imagination, allowing readers to indulge in fantasy and emotion as they experience the beauty of Ireland firsthand.
