After the Flower Market

"These surprisingly beautiful images of growth and decay are like a meditation, an invitation to consider transience and joy." — Harper’s Bazaar

Photographer Johanna Neurath visited Columbia Road Market in London nearly every Sunday for ten years. Rather than depicting the obvious prettiness of people and their flowers Neurath turns her attention to the colors and patterns left behind as the market clears out. This book fuses still life and street photography and reminds us that beauty is often to be found in the most unexpected places.
