The Beauty of Croatia

Tješimir Marić, born in Oklaj in 1939, seems to confirm the truth that you sometimes have to go around the world to get home. After working as a television cameraman, after impressions from picturesque New York, from the lakes of Canada and cliffs of Normandy, vistas of Paris, Moroccan villages made of mud, the volcanic formations of the Canary Islands, Icelandic geysers, the open sea of the Atlantic, exotic Yemen and unique Socotra, at last he could direct the lens of his camera to the domestic landscape. Over four decades he photographed on the whole landscapes, immortalising them first of all in highly appreciated picture postcards and calendars and now with this very worthwhile book.
