The Art of Yoga presents stunning images that capture more than 100 asanas, the physical postures in yoga practice, as exhibited by two of the world's best-known and most-respected teachers of the discipline. The culmination of a ten-year collaboration by Sharon Gannon and David Life with noted British-born photographer Martin Brading, each of the magnificent black-and-white images captures the physical intricacy of a position. Brief excerpts from ancient Sanskrit texts, together with the authors' commentary, crystallize each posture's spiritual essence. This lavish volume, which presents 150 duotone photographs printed on museum-quality art stock, will hold pride of place in the collection of any yoga practitioner or lover of fine photography.
