Sotiris Prappas, traveling wherever his science called him, would stroll in his limited free time and where his heart directed him, into the neighborhoods of the world, with a digital camera in hand.

With the emotion and technique of an amateur photographer, Sotiris Prappas, supported by the exquisite aphoristic lyrical words of the author Anna Manolopoulou, captures moments from the history of nations, flags, symbols of struggles and cultures, faces and images of everyday life.

The 650 pages of this luxurious album serve as frames of eternity filled with colors, shapes, forms, lines, allegories, traditions, garments of peoples, and grand monuments, in a magical interplay between light and shadow.

It is a collection - a lament of things and souls, an oasis of memory in the desert of oblivion. The role and the settings: science and art!
