Summary: | This night-time view of Berlin reveals a dazzling city full of color and light. Thanks to the vision of photographer Leo Seidel, Berlin at night has been transformed into a shimmering lightshow in this book. Here seventy images of well- and lesser-known sights capture the surprising mystique of the nocturnal city: the cold neon of billboards and construction sites, the warmth of illuminated windows and streetlamps; the glowing light of dusk as it merges buildings and sky. Because most of these photographs are taken over long exposures, the depopulated landscapes take on the haunting quality of a movie set. The transcendent beauty of Berlin, as seen through the lens of this gifted young artist, comes through in this stunning book. Illustrated throughout |
