EINE AFRIKANISCHE ERFAHRUNG Wildtierkunst & Abenteuer in Kenia, Combes SIGNIERTES Big Game
AN AFRICAN EXPERIENCE Wildlife Art and Adventure in Kenya SIMON COMBES CLIVE HOLLOWAY BOOKS 1989 1st edition. Signed. 31 x 24 cm. 143 pp. HB/DJ This is an unorthodox book. Coffee table presentations of African wildlife almost invariably consist of photographs and, from a first glance, the reader could be forgiven for thinking that these pictures are photographs. Incredulity might follow until the chance arises to make a comparison of the two. Then it is revealed that Simon Combes' animals are swollen with a life, and warmth, that no Nikon or Hasselblad can capture. A second and unlikely revelation is that the book isn't so much about art, as about fun and adventure. A cracking good read with little room left over for artistic technicalities.
