What makes a city a city? Is it the buildings, the people or is it a combination of both? In his illustrated book Metropolis, Alan Schaller has answered this question in his own individual way and has set standards in modern street photography. For all lovers of spectacular black and white photography, the Metropolis coffee table book is a must-have, as there is hardly anything comparable on the market. Alan Schaller uniquely depicts urban contrasts that big cities like New York, London, Havana, Kyoto or Istanbul have to offer in their architecture and everyday life.

In the photo book Metropolis, Alan Schaller elevates unusual cityscapes to an art form, plays with light and shadow and creates a world in black and white that captivates the viewer. The photographs appear like random snapshots. As if the reader were walking through the streets themselves and taking a quick look at a scene out of the corner of their eye. That is what Schaller fans love about his work. The photo artist manages to capture the moment of surprise for eternity.

Accompany Alan Schaller on a 240-page journey through the world's most famous metropolises in his illustrated book Metropolis. Look forward to impressive black-and-white photographs with extraordinary cityscapes in which people and buildings merge into an intimate moment.
