In Delta, Daniel Schwartz has made a powerful, yet dispassionate record of these vast, densely populated, intensely cultivated and exploited areas. Though richly endowed by nature, the deltas are becoming less and less able to support their multiplying populations whose survival is becoming increasingly precarious. Floods and droughts, erosion and tidal surges remorselessly destroy what humans have created. These photographs are honest documents showing the reality of life - and death - in some of the most impoverished, yet most resourceful regions of the world. No library descriptions found. |
