A Picture Book (is worth a thousand words!)

The more predictions there are about the death of the printed word, the more gorgeous and stunning the new artistic books get! There is nothing like that feeling of opening a big and beautiful book with images so hypnotic and seductive , you want to jump into the pages and leave the mundane reality of life.

It seems to me bigger is really better nowadays.
This is planet Earth. Our big beautiful planet, captured in a big beautiful book.
Strike a pose there is nothing to it, Vogue. Not just a magazine, not just a Madonna song, but a whole way of life, captured in not one but two absolutely swoon worthy books.



What is black and white and sexy all over? Tom Ford, of course.
My favorite!

His curvaceous and monumental architecture deserves a huge tribute!
Love this book!

An icon immortalized in an unforgettable book. Ryan Seacrest, out! Out having a Coca-Cola break that is!


Doesn't the little car look like a real object, about to ride off the cover?
Pucci packs a punch. This book weighs at least seven pounds!
The Pedro Almodovar Archives. Proof that kitsch can cross over to cool.

The iconic Audrey Hepburn!

Audrey Hepburn never goes out of style.
Visionaire 2000. Encapsulating the end of one century and the start of a new one.
Next best thing to Cartier jewels? The special commemorative book that marked the Cartier sesquicentennial.
