Roger Phillips Boeken
16 december 1932 – 15 november 2021
Roger Phillips heeft zijn leven gewijd aan het fotograferen en publiceren van beelden van tuinplanten van over de hele wereld, waarbij hij moderne technieken gebruikte om een encyclopedische collectie te creëren. Zijn werk is gericht op het tonen van de enorme diversiteit van de flora, van mossen tot rozen en eenjarige planten, met een scherp oog voor detail en botanische nauwkeurigheid. Voordat hij zich op de natuurlijke historie richtte, perfectioneerde Phillips zijn artistieke talenten als een bekroonde art director in de reclamewereld, waarmee hij een unieke visuele gevoeligheid aan zijn botanische documentatie toevoegde.
