The Snow Leopard (Illustrated edition)

Publisher Gallimard Loisirs
Writer Sylvain Tesson embarked on an extraordinary adventure with photographer Vincent Munier, looking for the legendary snow leopard.

On the Tibetan Plateau, Tesson and and Munier had a single shared goal: to capture the beauty of a natural landscape still wild, as yet untamed by images and words. There, writer Tesson acquired skills for stalking animals, a test of patience and silence, learning to blend in with nature in order to better contemplate it.
This book, featuring Tesson's writing and 70 photographs taken by Vincent Munier on their adventure, will shed new light on a quest for beauty made up of caution, waiting, and silence.
