Mongolia is a project which Frederic Lagrange began in 2001 and has spanned over 15 years, during which he took 12 trips in all four seasons, covering vastly different regions of the country.

This book is his visual portrait of Mongolia and her people captured in detail in a genuine, human form through a compilation of landscapes and portraits. The book offers the viewer an intimate look and visual journey into a still largely unknown and intriguing place. The book is intentionally printed in large format, to maximize the impact of the smallest details and the different emotions of everyday life in the countryside and cities.

The entire selection of images have been shot on negative film which offers a painterly quality with grain and with vivid colors. To Lagrange's knowledge, this is the only body of work about Mongolia that offers such an extensive coverage of the country.
