ABOUT

Iconic, inspiring, heartbreaking or simply stunning…
This book unites the magic of the Olympic Games with the power of the camera. Unforgettable images trace the history of the games, not only by remembering the feats of outstanding athletes but by capturing the very spirit of sport: dedication, physical excellence and fair play. As rarely before, The Olympic Album captures the ecstasy of winning, the anguish of losing and the sheer joy of taking part.

Much of the power of this book lies in the juxtaposition of images, some of which echo one another while the others provide a contrast: triumph and despair, fellowship and loneliness, prefect motion or a clumsy fall. There are many great Olympians – Fanny Blankers-Koen, Emil Zatopek, Olga Korbut, Mark Spitz, Bjorn Daehlie, Steve Redgraves, Jackie Joyner-Kersee – along with many less familiar names. All captured in breath-taking images

Simple captions provide signposts for the reader.
