| book description |

* 10Â world-renowned photographersÂ *Â 2Â acclaimed writersÂ *Â 1Â timeless Himalayan Kingdom Bhutan: Portrait of a Kingdom is the result of an extraordinary project undertaken under the patronage of Her Majesty Queen Jetsun Pema Wangchuck. Over the course of a year, ten internationally recognized photographers travelled across Bhutan, each during a different season, to capture the countryâ€™s landscapes, traditions, and spirit through their unique lenses. The book also features texts by Matthieu Ricard and Pico Iyer, as well as exclusive photographs taken by His Majesty King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck. Together, these contributions offer an intimate and timeless portrait of a kingdom where heritage, nature, and harmony are deeply intertwined. A journey into the heart of Bhutan. With more than 300 richly illustrated pages, this book offers a unique immersion into one of the worldâ€™s most preserved kingdoms. Through the lens of twelve internationally acclaimed photographers, including Steve McCurry, Vincent Munier, Matthieu Ricard, and Michael Yamashita (National Geographic), Bhutan is revealed across the seasons, between grand landscapes, living traditions, and moments of everyday life. This exceptional art book, printed with remarkable care and presented in an elegant clothbound cover, combines the power of images with the richness of texts by Pico Iyer and Matthieu Ricard. More than just a book, it is a precious object to offer â€” an invitation to travel and contemplation, to discover a mythical land in the heart of the Himalayas. **Â Disclaimer: This title is published with 12 different cover designs.
