About the book
Alzheimer's disease is an overlooked affliction of the elderly, often kept behind closed doors. Acclaimed photographer Peter Granser's new series of work approaches the disease in a new way. The delicately coloured, square portrait photographs display an unmistakable aesthetic, radiating beauty without prettifying. In an immediate and touching artistic plea, Granser allows the reader to meditate on these faces and confront their own perceptions of the disease and the process of ageing.
