Immerse your potential buyers in the scenic beauty of southern France with this elegant, vintage 1996 hardcover edition of Lavender: Fragrance of Provence. Masterfully captured by acclaimed photographer Hans Silvester, with descriptive commentary by Christiane Meunier, this visual monograph serves as a complete tribute to the stunning lavender fields, landscapes, and culture of the region.

The interior copyright page lists ISBN 0-8109-3576-7 and Library of Congress Card Number 95-78668. Originally published in France under the title Provence, terre de lavande by Les Éditions de La Martinière, this English translation by Alexandra Campbell was beautifully printed and bound in Italy. Notably, all photographs were shot using legendary Leica M6 and R6 cameras on classic Kodachrome 64 and 200 film, making it a highly desirable piece for both vintage photography buffs and art book collectors.
