About this product
Product Information
Perrin depicts the feat of an extraordinary old man who builds a cathedral with his bare hands. 92-year-old Justo Gallego isn't an architect or a builder, nor has he received any training in construction at all. He couldn't even complete his basic education due to the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War. Nevertheless, more than 40 years ago he decided to build a work he could offer to God and to this task he has since devoted his life. Bit by bit, almost on his own and using mainly recycled materials, he has erected a monumental cathedral in a field in Mejorada del Campo, Madrid. There are no blueprints or drawings or any official project. Everything is inside his head. He says he has taken his inspiration from books on cathedrals and castles, but, above all, from the Gospel. He also says he will continue working in it for as long as he lives. Perrin's beautiful photographs, wrapped in black, dive into the very soul of Justo Gallego's work, into its heartbeat, and allow the mystery of the place to unfold. AUTHOR: Blaise Perrin (Fontaine-les-Dijon, 1982) is a French photographer who, during a stay in Madrid, was mesmerised by Justo Gallego's work. The latter accepted Perrin's help in exchange for allowing him to photograph the cathedral, and the photographer started sweeping, carrying bricks, mixing cement and assembling scaffoldings during long working hours on the old man's command - and taking pictures during the brief moments of rest.

- 1***3 (979)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook is brand new and in excellent condition but NOT what I ordered or what is stated in the advert! (Please see attached photos. Book was posted and received promptly, but the book I ordered states clearly it’s the ‘Hardback’ edition. What I got was the paperback edition. I ordered a hardback copy for a reason feel and like I’ve been deceived (how many others I wonder?). Misleading advertising or genuine mistake? On this occasion I’ll give ‘bookwanderers’ the benefit of doubt.
