This is the story of the capital of Warmia and Masuria, told
in
photographs. It is a bold, unusual look at the town, disclosing
its singular charm. Architecture guides us through the history
of
Olsztyn. Views taken at different seasons and times of day draw
out the beauty of architectural details. Mieczysław Wieliczko's
poetic images of the city and the natural world around it go
perfectly with the poetic words of Zbigniew Chojnowski. The
eyecatching cover, the arrangement and presentation of the
photographs and the original layout of the text pages are proof
of a well-thought-out editorial concept and good design.
"This album is an expression of love for Olsztyn. These pages
reveal the many faces of the town, and show its history, on grander
and smaller scales."
