Gardens of Remembrance – Necrography

‘Necrography’ serves as the collective title for the three volumes in the Gardens of Remembrance series. Created and published by Vespertine Offering, this collection delves into a photographic/historical voyage of discovery into our common and inescapable past only to become a sanctuary for brief escapes into aesthetic dreams... of the dark kind.

“Gardens of Remembrance: Necrography” bundles the three tomes in 1 slipcase. They will only appear as a very limited wooden box, signed and handnumbered.

The Necrography box will not be sold online.

“Being passionate graveyard photographers ourselves we’ve always admired Sven’s distinctive artistic vision, storytelling skills and unconventional sense of observation. While cemeteries are places where a lot of drama reigns, he manages to capture the beauty of these sacred spaces in a surprisingly serene way. Needless to say, Sven has an eagle eye that is second to none.“
