One cannot start early enough thinking about what to buy for Christmas. And since one can buy Lebkuchen and Christmas biscuits and Marzipan Kartoffeln already, we figured we could start with publishing our ideas (and whishes... ;-) ).
Arctic: Jan Vermeer
by Frieda van Essen
by Frieda van Essen
Jan Vermeer is an exceptionally gifted photographer. And - luckily - he published another awesome book: Antarctica: Jan Vermeer by Frieda van Essen.
The books do not only display pictures, you also learn something about the history of the polar regions. And since the Arctic and the Antarctica are facing rapid changes due to our lack of responsible climate politics this books might make a nice Christmas present. Even an investment for the future. In 50 years time you could show the pictures to your grand-(grand-)children and tell them about a beautiful but then vanished (or at least rapidly shrinking) world.

Wirklich eine schöne Geschenk-Idee. Aber wenn der Zerfall unserer schönen Welt dann wirklich so weit fortgeschritten ist, erscheint es mir riskant mit den vergangenen Bildern der neuen Jugend die Augen zu öffnen. Das könnte auf uns zurück fallen. Zu schnell sind wir dann in Erklärungsnot ...
