The acclaimed New Yorker illustrator''s ink and pencil observations on the theme of travel
This elaborate book features over 160 ink and pencil drawings by Christoph Niemann, each a story of an unfamiliar place. They are observations on traveling, arriving and immersing oneself, on the melancholy of being on the road and the adventure of discovering new destinationsamong them New York, Paris, Hong Kong, Amsterdam, Seville and Kyoto.
Regardless of their subjects, these are all sketches that grasp the magic, light and mood of a place in a handful of virtuoso strokes. In Niemanns own words: Over time memories change. Most things fade, while others become more significant. Connections arise that one wasnt aware of originally. Sometimes a drawing can capture all this in a new and surprising way. And with some luck, the picture feels as authentic as the moment itself.

His work has appeared on more than 25 New Yorker covers since 1998, with illustrations in Weltkunst magazine, Wired and the New York Times Magazine.
