About This Item
Abrams, 2002. First edition. Hard cover. Like New/Fine. Signed by Author. Inscribed "Happy Birthday Kir Evelyn H. Lauder". In this striking sequel to the highly successful The Seasons Observed, Evelyn Lauder continues her photographic explorations of the nuances of the natural world. Abstractly sensuous, Lauder's serene "nature-scapes" reveal the camouflage patterns of plane tree barks, rhythmic undulations of snowdrifts, geometric patterns formed by sunlight, and other ecological wonders. Her search for such exquisite organic symmetries has taken her everywhere from the mountains of Colorado to the wilds of Patagonia and the remote regions of Myanmar (Burma).The implicit themes of Lauder's photographs-optimism and nature's capacity for healing and renewal-are also those of her intense dedication to breast cancer research, and all royalties from An Eye for Beauty will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Evelyn Lauder (née Hausner; August 12, 1936 â November 12, 2011) was an Austrian American businesswoman, socialite and philanthropist who has been credited as one of the creators and popularizers of the pink ribbon as a symbol for awareness of breast cancer.
