SwitzerlandLand of Light and Colour 


This is the first full color photo book about Switzerland.

All the time people could only enjoy black and white photos of Switzerland, that changed in 1940. The first time people could enjoy the deep blue of the Swiss lakes, the green of the meadows and forests and the air colors of the stunning mountain scenery in a book of great quality printed in Switzerland.

There are 48 full color pictures, many of them full page photos.
The photos were made using Kodachrome (Kodak) and Agfacolor.

Accompanying text for each photo in German, English and French.
