Description



Book Synopsis



A true photographic masterclass with a unique focus, Old Corfu invites us to share in an island experience like no other.

Famed for its architecture, culture and natural beauty, Corfu greets millions of tourists each year. Having been left to its own laidback lifestyle after 500 years of Venetian, French and British occupation, the island is now as popular with holiday makers as it once was with invaders. The old town is an especially alluring blend of venetian architecture, Mediterranean charm and even the occasional cricket pitch, all uniquely resistant to the intrusions of modernity.

Immaculately illustrated, Old Corfu opens the rusty gate to an island experience like no other. By focalizing the flaking paint on garage doors, pavements split by the heat, or olive trees stooped and swaying as if drunk, each page is infused with the same unspoilt appeal as Corfu itself.

More than a testament to the allure of a balmy, Mediterranean paradise, this is a true photographic masterclass, inviting us to see the attractiveness in old age, and the beauty in life's imperfections.



Review Quotes




"Often dismissed as a cheap package destination, our beginner's guide explains how to explore Corfu's culture and history... On a budget: if a vicarious glimpse is sufficient, Old Corfu, a photographic collection by Maira Victoria Douka, is now available through ACC Art Books."--The Telegraph
