This beautifully illustrated book offers a sweeping pictorial vision of the Netherlands, with its iconic windmills, canals, and tulips portrayed alongside images of agricultural innovation, dance festivals, Dutch design and modern architecture. The rich history of the stubborn but tolerant Dutch people comes through clearly in the work of photographer Frans Lemmens and his partner Marjolijn van Steeden. Their approach – a photo of the Netherlands every day of the year – has turned this book into a truly unique photo document: a feast for the eyes and an ode to a special and beautiful country.
Frans Lemmens is a documentary photographer. During an expedition in Bolivia he met Marjolijn van Steeden. They have lived and worked together ever since. For many years they travelled the world and photographed for magazines, including National Geographic Traveler. The Sahara desert was their specialty for years, but the photogenic Netherlands was not forgotten either. Since 2010, their own country has even been the focus of their work.
