When it comes to color, nothing can surpass the vast palette found in nature, from a bright green leaf in a sun-dappled forest to the rich red feathers of a cardinal. Nature's Portraits offers sixty detailed drawings that can be brought brilliantly to life with nothing more than a few colored pencils or crayons and a sense of wonder about the world around us. Each illustration is captioned with the common and Latin names of the species pictured.

Fontcuberta's photography is itself about photographys own workings, and with each series he challenges the audience's trust in the veracity of the medium and its function as a system of representation. Confronting our anxieties about that system, Fontcuberta's careful fabrications are laced with clues and inconsistencies - the photographer himself even appears, disguised as Hans von Kubert or Joan Fontana.
