Abstract
Prairie is the unlikely yet rather successful marriage of what a prairie looks like to a scientist and feels like to an artist. The sixtytwo photographs, nine of which are black and white, are . square in format and superbly printed in Japan. The imagery is divided among scientific illustrations of native grasses, insects, or mammals; expanses of sky and cloud or expanses of earth seen aerially; and landscapes. In spite of the diversity of intent and viewpoint, a sense of continuity and flow is achieved.
