With this sixth instalment of the Atlas des Régions Naturelles, Eric Tabuchi and Nelly Monnier continue their long-term project begun in 2017: the global documentation of the 450 natural regions – or “countries” – that make up the French territory. This extraordinary photographic adventure is destined to unfold over several years, at the rate of a publication every six months.
Travelling through these small geographical and cultural entities, which have sometimes fallen into disuse in the face of the administrative division of the Hexagon, the duo collect the visual elements that make up a region. They combine man-made features – traditional architecture, place names, local aesthetics, traces of history – with natural motifs such as relief, landscapes, colors, vegetation and more.
In 384 pages and over 500 images, Atlas des Régions Naturelles Vol.6 brings together 12 “portraits” of natural regions, punctuated by 4 thematic entries. As with each volume, the work is accompanied by an index map at the end.
Chapters of the sixth volume: Boulonnais, Pays de Bray, Chalonnais, Cinémas, Chambarans, Morvan, Noyonnais, Devantures, Perche, Plaine de Caen, Quercy blanc, Parpaing, Val d’Anjou, Vôge, Woëvre, Pastoral Graffiti.
