In her new photo book, Floramour: Wild Flowers, dedicated garden enthusiast Anja Klaffenbach turns her attention to all those wildflowers we come across during walks on grassy strips, meadow sections, parking areas, or hiking trails. Often rather inconspicuous, with small flower cups, these meadow flowers add splashes of colour that define spring and summer.
However, the names of these beauties are generally unknown to the observer, but Klaffenbach now puts an end to this. In her familiar, affectionate style, this Floramour edition deals with each flower theme. The coffee table book aims to be engaging, convey botanical knowledge, and present the plants from all angles, with photos, graphics, and drawings.
Klaffenbach has succeeded brilliantly in this endeavour, resulting in a photo book that is unparalleled. Both from the outside and inside, the book conveys the beauty of our nature. Upon opening it, you are immediately put in a summer mood and can delight in the detailed and atmospheric images.
In stunning images, Klaffenbach showcases the aesthetics of field flowers, which often go unnoticed in the fast pace of everyday life.
Anja Klaffenbach was more or less born with a love of nature: In the garden of her mother, a passionate flower enthusiast and amateur gardener, she discovered the great diversity of the local flora from an early age already. When she is not busy as a freelance copywriter and author writing books about travelling and botanical life, she can be found there, putting her green thumb to the test by exploring new and old-fashioned species of edible and ornamental plants.
