Vincent Van Gogh -
L'uomo e la terra, Milan
Some of my photos of the Dutch landscape served as an opening act for visitors to an exhibit of Vincent Van Gogh's paintings at the Palazzo Reale in Milan, Italy (2014 through Spring 2015).
I'm fascinated by natural and unnatural forms and textures, the effects of time, and how light, shadow and reflection can give things entirely different meanings. I'm also intrigued by the spirit and atmosphere of places I've visited, especially the megaliths and old stone sites of Europe.
Most photos are arranged in slideshows under the Photography menu to emphasize themes and sequences. Others are displayed on the Prints pages. The Megaliths slideshows appear under their own menu heading, along with a highlights slideshow.
Art Prints & Digital Image RightsIndividual photos can be purchased as archival quality prints, or as digital image rights. See the Prints pages and/or inquire for details.
The old stone monuments of Europe have sparked imaginations since ancient times, when many believed they were the mysterious work of primeval giants. Modern archaeology is less romantic about their origins, but their haunting magic still endures.
