Photographer Páll Stefánsson has undertaken his toughest assignment yet: to drive around Iceland in four days' flat, stopping every 20 km to photograph whatever presents itself to its viewfinder. The result is 1881 km worth of Icelandic landscape, light and life. Mountains loom, fjords come and go, horses glance up from their grazing, a lone sheepdog stands sentinel before a farm, and always there is the Road, stretching onwards through the vast, open spaces and brooding light, leading the photographer ever further on is quest to capture the essence of Iceland. Páll Stefánsson is one of Iceland's most celebrated landscape photographers. Text in Icelandic, English and German.22 96 pages, 28 x 28 cm, hardback with color photos.
