Islas Canarias

[EN]
Tenerife is an island of contrasts; from the snow-white peak of Teide to the deep-blue of its sea, from the green of the banana trees to the varied colours of its unique flora, from the violets that blossom amidst the snow to the warm sands of its beaches.

No matter which season nor which hour of the day, this island possesses a landscape, a view, a sensation that changes, tirelessly transforms and fills with emotion the person who has the fortune to contemplating them.
For this reason, it is not easy to capture in a photograph the landscape and the sensation, the view and the emotion. Only the sensitivity of an artist like Tullio Gatti can achieve such a miracle. 
In this photographs, the viewer has the feeling of being immersed in the landscape that confronts his eyes, the vision goes beyond mere image to attain other sensations, more intimate and profound. 

Tullio Gatti, poet of images, offers us with this book the most beautiful graphic verses of an incomparable island, uniting beauty with sentiment, and sensation with reality.
