Book Description
'Above all, I feed on the colours of Asia: deep henna, hammered gold, curry and saffron, rich black lacquer and painted-over rot. As I reflect back on it, I see it was the vibrant colour of Asia that taught me to see and write in light.' In South Southeast Magnum photographer Steve McCurry presented the cream of his work aphs from South and Southeast Asia.
Now the best of these images have been translated into 25 greetings cards (with envelopes). The design of the cards mirrors the classic portfolio look of the book and they are packaged in a distinctive tin which is a work of art in its own right. The South Southeast images are an outstanding example of McCurry's use of colour and unique way of connecting with people. They provide a beautiful personal souvenir of his work and a great way to introduce it to others.
