The Dream Coffee Book - MaRio de Janeiro




Mario Testino is one of the world's most successful fashion and portrait photographers, whose images are noted for their freshness and intimacy. Peruvian by birth, Testino has been fascinated by Rio de Janeiro since his earliest summer vacations.

I've just ordered a copy of this masterpiece, however, I can't seem to fathom why this work isn't available in a hard copy version. It could as well be that I just haven't found it yet.
Except for the fact that it's only available in paperback, to me this is everything a coffee table book should bring to the table. Interesting eye candy. Wiki: a coffee table book is a hardcover book that is intended to sit on a coffee table or similar surface in an area where guests sit and are entertained, thus inspiring conversation or alleviating boredom.

From Taschen, GBP 27,99 (ISBN: 978-3-8365-1858-1).
