About this product
Product Information
For the past three decades French photographer Francois-Marie Banier has turned his lens on Yves Saint Laurent, Johnny Depp, Samuel Beckett, Silvana Mangano and Vladimir Horowitz, among other icons. He is equally enthralled with capturing anonymous life on the street: My thirst for faces, for bodies, for ways of sitting, standing and walking and for newly discovered gazes slakes all other thirsts. My thirst for music, for the sea, for mountain peaks, for the myriad pleasures and feelings that make life so varied, so similar, so captivatingly unpredictable." Banier, who began his career as a respected playwright and novelist, fuses the visual and textual by writing and painting on top of his dynamic and playful black-and-white photographs. The result, showcased in this volume, is a uniquely diaristic, poetic and personal form of portraiture."

They mince no words when describing the plants...I should have owned this book 50 years ago.

Book did not match listing photo (pic2) The listings only photograph was of an autograph page (pic 1) which means this seller did not photograph the actual item being sold. The seller had to be contacted twice to get a full refund. The shipping cost was very expensive and item was poorly packaged. I have been buying items from ebay for many years and this is the first time I have delt with a seller whose listing was so blatantly dishonest. Buyers beware!

$10 shipping and took over 2 weeks, refused to give tracking number, the cover is bent but they did not disclose that, poorly packaged and arrived open, overall bad experience and customer service- they just send copy and paste messages. I would avoid this seller.
