For this edition, published on the occasion of Edition Schellmann’s 40th anniversary, Candida Höfer selected a photograph she had taken of the Biblioteca Marucelliana in Florence, Italy. Captured in her signature style – marked by precision, symmetry, and an absence of human presence – the image presents the vast, light-filled interior of this historic library as a quiet monument to knowledge and order.
