Περιγραφή
Eleven years, thirty islands, four hundred photos of ruined houses from all over the Aegean. An alluring bygone world preserved both in the buildings themselves and in their interiors, where evidence of their life and final use is often frozen in time. Four hundred images that together form an anthropology of yesterday, an “archaeology of yesterday” perhaps, since their study provides a wealth of information on the habits, whims, taste, professions, occupations, cuisine and the various preferences and attitudes of the people who once lived, worked, had fun, loved and were being loved and eventually had to migrate abroad or die in them.
