The Cats of Venice By Shin Otani
Famous for its beautiful waterways, Venice is also renowned for its slinky, stoic, adorable cats. Presenting 80 gorgeous color images, photographer Shin Otani offers a cat's-eye view of the city that has enchanted travelers for centuries. Peering through the morning mist, prowling along the Grand Canal, or basking in the golden Mediterranean sun, the cats of Venice embody all the mystery and grace of old Europe. Stone and terra-cotta plazas, languid canals, windows with brightly painted shutters, and spiraling wrought iron set the stage for the ramblings of these lucky cats. At once a portrait of Venice 's famous felines and an homage to a magical place,
The Cats of Venice will delight lovers of both the city of canals and its favorite four-legged citizens.
Shin Otani spent over 12 years traveling in Europe, taking photographs of cats and people. Today he lives in Osaka, Japan . This is his second book.
