About the Item
The Officina Profumo Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella Hardcover Photography book.
This book is a luxurious memento of the historic house of Santa Maria Novella and the art of creating fine products from ingredients in the Tuscan countryside.
For centuries, the house has been at the heart of Florentine art, history and culture.
These products have been loved for their quality and craftsmanship across generations, and this book showcases that heritage in stunning photography and vivid prose.
The Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella can trace its roots back to the Florence of 1221. In that year, Dominican friars founded the convent of Santa Maria Novella, and began to cultivate - among other things - a garden. From that same garden, many centuries of experience in pharmacopoeia and natural preparations began to develop. And in later years that experience would expand to include the worlds of cosmetics, fragrances and wellness products.
Beautiful hardcover book on perfume and traditional pharmaceutical soaps, balms and salves from the world’s oldest, still-operating pharmacy in Florence, est. 1221 by the Dominican monks of Santa Maria Novella.

Vanishing Africa by Giansanti, Giann Hardcover Photography Book
Located in North Hollywood, CA
Vanishing Africa hardcover book by Giann Giansanti author photographer.
This book represents months of work of planning and in the field, but above all it is a tribute to the eternal beauty of Africa; the photographs and text 'steal' from the peoples of the Omo a fragment of their mystery and truth. But with delicacy and respect. By examining a small region in the heart of the continent, the books attempts to trace the roots of remotest Africa; the cradle of man, where ancestral bonds with nature still exist. It is a place where the link with the dark side of existence is not hidden, as happens in the West, but exhibited. By means of his camera and his pen, in this book the author has encapsulated long years of study of the most interesting peoples...
