Steve McCurry: The Iconic Photographs Limited Edition


One of the last week's most appreciated post was the one I made about Steve McCurry's photography
So many of you will be happy to know that Phaidonworld’s leading publisher of books on the visual arts, culture and creativity, has launched a limited edition collection of Steve McCurry's most beautiful photographs.


The book, distributed in 3.300 copies each with C-type Lambda print signed by the photographer himself, includes his most famous works, such as the Afghan Girl as well as images from the streets of India, the magical temples of Angkor in Cambodia and the Buddhist monasteries in Tibet.


The dimensions of the book are pretty impressive (500x375 mm), so it will be like being dragged into the heart of the pictures.

Here are some videos in which McCurry talks about the story behind some of his iconic photographs:






Steve McCurry: The Iconic Photographs is available from Phaidon.com

This is definitely the best gift that every photography lover would like to receive :)
