Seller's Description:
Very good. 1990. Doubleday. Hard Cover. Book-VG. Dj-VG, protective covered. 13x10. 143pp. Profuse colour photos by author. On the right bank of the Yangtze River, 310 miles west of Shanghai, the granite peaks of the Huang Shan range, with its pine trees hundreds of years old, are almost always enveloped in mist. Today a million Chinese a year and a handful of foreigners scale the Capital of Heaven, from whose summit the mists, when parted by the wind, reveal the most beautiful landscape in the world. Marc Riboud's magnificent photographs capture what has inspired poets and painters down the generations.
