Description: A moving recognizable look at life on lockdown and the effect the coronavirus pandemic had across the world because every city had a story to tell and at the end of it all we were all in it together. In the past year hospitals filled highways and subways emptied landmarks and parks were deserted our healthcare workers became increasingly fatigued and frustrated and nearly all human activity paused. In photographs The Great Wall and The Colosseum look photoshopped with no tourists in sight. This book is unique in that it creates a visual narrative to document that emptiness as a way to reflect and to find solace amid the shock. A year later it's something we've all seen and can relate to. This is a stunning collection of the abandoned and austere sights of fifteen major cities throughout the world during the peak outbreak of Covid - 19. With their fine art backgrounds and through their network of professional photographers Julie and Jeffrey Loria worked together to capture the unprecedented lockdown conditions worldwide. The photos show a range of emotions from the physical and psychological weight of caskets being carried to a Rio cemetery to the completely empty and eerie Times Square and Rodeo Drive to the patriotic pride in Rome's t - shirt display honoring their Italian flag colors as a symbol of hope. The photographs are not only a reminder of the harrowing pandemic that hushed some of the world's greatest urban streets but also proof that across the globe we were all in this together. Beneath the somberness in these images there is a hint of beauty amid the stillness but most of all there is the presence of hope and promise that we will thrive again. Cities featured include: New York Jerusalem Boston Tokyo Paris Los Angeles Rome Rio de Janeiro San Francisco Washington DC London Miami Tel Aviv Madrid Chicago
