Specialist Notes

Edition for collectors in a limited edition of only 2500 copies numbered and signed by the artist of this powerful large-format portfolio that spans the whole planet, edited by Lélia Wanick Salgado. In 30 expeditions - on foot, by light plane, by boat and even by balloon, through extreme temperatures and in sometimes very dangerous situations - Salgado has managed to capture images of nature, animals and indigenous peoples of such intense beauty and shocking to leave you breathless. “In Genesis, my camera allowed nature to speak. And I had the privilege of listening. " - Sebastião Salgado
