"Africa's wild animals have never been so magnificent and mysterious as in Brandt's photographs. The elephants he shoots are as weighty as pyramids. The rhinos he captures on camera are older than carbon. The apes he records are smarter than humans. Africa is beset by disasters. Is it not a blessing to be able to forget war and famine and immerse oneself in these images of the land? These photographs remind us that Africa is, for wild animals, a home that holds great treasures." This is how *Time* Magazine commented on Nick Brandt and his work.
