Product Details Hardcover 144 pages Thames & Hudson Published 1991 From Publishers Weekly Lithuanian photographer Macijauskas documents the daily lives of his country's rural people in candid, dramatic, grainy black-and-white photos taken between 1966 and 1986. Fondness and respect for his subjects are expressed in brief commentaries and four photographic series: "Village Markets" presents farmers, moments of levity, livestock and their casual slaughter; "Summer" portrays vacationers at a beach; "The Veterinary Clinic" depicts humans, farm animals, struggle and pain; "Parades" shows social gatherings, rallies and funerals. Macijauskas's powerful images, ranging from the grim to the comic, startle the reader with every turn of the page. Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc.
