Klappentext

The work of Argentine photographer Leandro Katz is presented here in dialogue with the nineteenth-century artist Frederick Catherwood, whose images of Maya ruins have fascinated viewers for more than a century. Katz's photos, most of which are previously unpublished, are presented alongside an essay by Jesse Lerner.
