"A beautiful book... a unique tribute to this estate, the cosmos and our friendship."-Brad Pitt

Photo artist Robert Charles Mann explores time and space through luminous pinhole photography, capturing the sun's movement across the sky over the storied Chteau Miraval.

How can we see the flow of time, endless and unbroken? In his quest to understand temporality, change, and permanence, Robert Charles Mann has returned to a minimalist approach to photography. Over the course of several years, he has installed handcrafted pinhole cameras throughout the historic Miraval estate, continuously capturing the sun from solstice to solstice on paper. Solargraphs are not composite montages, but the result of continuous exposure of the sun for six months in a practice bridging old-school traditional methods with modern digital techniques. The result is a breathtaking visual meditation on time, space, and the cosmos.

Featuring a foreword by Brad Pitt, the steward of Chteau Miraval, this curated volume presents fifty exceptional images that bear witness to the silent, continuous movement of time and light. Mann's solargraphs are radiant, mysterious, and full of wonder, now brought together for the first time in this exceptional artist's book.
