Since art is eternal, nothing is lost.

This is a fictionalized adventurous expedition of Johan Moritz Rugendas, the German landscape painter to Argentina. He intends to journey far into the south, to unexplored regions, in order to capture the essence of the wild landscape and depict it as he sees it.
But things don’t go as planned…

Bedwelmende samenzwering van een imposant landschap met een hallucinerend hoofdpersonage, tegen het decor van een fascinerende geschiedschrijving. Nogmaals lezen!
