Christoph Niemann's travel drawings are enchanting. They transport the viewer to where the illustrator picked up his pencil and paintbrush, gifting us with a snapshot of the world. Stripped down and restrained, in vibrant colours, they awaken the desire for travel and adventure. You find yourself wanting to embark on a journey with these images again and again, to continually discover new details in them. Whether it's the glut of sunshine in the midday languor of Spanish towns; the incessant rush and motion of a big city intersection, captured in one moment; the earthy colours and heavy light of Asia or the view from a window into a peaceful garden - every picture is unique, captivatingly beautiful and alive.

A beautifully designed art book featuring over 150 ink and pencil drawings.

Christoph Niemann has provided covers for the New Yorker and New York Times Magazine and was commissioned to create a special edition of Zeit Magazin in 2016.

Christoph Niemann’s pictures tell stories of unfamiliar places. They are observations on travelling, arriving, and immersing oneself, on the melancholy of being on the road and the adventure of discovering new places. Virtuoso iconic sketches, capable of capturing the magic, light and mood of a place in a handful of strokes.
