Din piatra si otel. O calatorie in lumea Urbex - A. S. R. Principesa Sofia a Romaniei

Romania are un numar impresionant de situri si nestemate istorice, atat urbane, cat si rurale. Totusi, in pofida recunoasterii internationale de care se bucura, mult prea multe dintre ele au fost lasate de izbeliste si au o nevoie acuta de a fi redescoperite si restaurate. In albumul Din piatra si otel, Alteta Sa Regala Principesa Sofia a Romaniei, fotografa premiata si apreciata la nivel international, depune marturie pentru aceste locuri si isi indreapta obiectivul aparatului asupra lor, punandu-le in lumina. Ea il calauzeste pe cititor intr-o odisee vizuala deopotriva intima si captivanta, purtandu-l printre aceste structuri astazi abandonate, straduindu-se sa le pastreze vie memoria – ca nu cumva sa cada in uitare si sa se preschimbe in niste fantasme ale epocilor trecute.

Romania has a remarkable number of urban and rural historical sites and gems. Yet, despite their international recognition, far too many have ultimately been left neglected and are in dire need of rediscovery and restoration. In Of Stone and Steel, Her Royal Highness Princess Sophie of Romania, an award-winning and internationally-acclaimed photographer, bears witness to these sites, casting her lens – and thereby some limelight – upon them. She guides the reader through an at once intimate and captivating visual odyssey through these now-abandoned structures, endeavouring to keep their memory alive – lest they fall into oblivion and become the ghosts of eras past.
