Roman Hours

About this book

'Roman Hours' is the first publication in collaboration between writer André Aciman and photographer Jeannette Montgomery Barron. The idea for this project grew out of a series of conversations between the two authors and their shared desire to capture Rome. The book brings together a selection of images that, put together, offer a reflection on the contradictions, colours, and sounds of Rome, where the ancient is glimpsed through the modern and the bright colours fade into the characteristic ocher tones of the Eternal City.
