Asleep in the Sun - Hardcover
Nothing spells decadence and tranquility like the silken luxury of a cat napping in the sun. Asleep in the Sun -- the third and most ravishing volume in Hans Silvester's best-selling photography series -- presents the feline denizens of Greece's Cydadic Islands engaging in their most highly refined activity. Stretched across a bright doorway, curled into a sun-baked corner, rolling lazily against one another, these languid animals glow in Silvester's masterful portraits.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st US Ed. Welcome to the Cyclades islands, where the brilliant sun-drenched buildings and whitewashed streets are home to a fascinating feline community. Surrounded by the vibrant colors of the Mediterranean, the cats of Greece pass the breezy afternoons prone in sleepy bliss. No creature has honed the art of the nap as masterfully as the cat, and here they achieve new heights in sublime relaxation. Curled in snuggly heaps, stretched across stairs and pathways, reclined in precarious nonchalance on cliff-side walls and rooftops, the cats in this book give themselves entirely to the dreamy pleasures of sun worship. 142 p. of wonderful photographs - a delightful gift book for fans of felines!.
