Book
A child is born / photographs by Lennart Nilsson and Linda Forsell; text by Lars Hamberger and Gudrun Abascal; translated fromm the Swedish by Linda Schenck and Robin Blanton.
First published nearly 50 years ago, A Child is Born, broke - and continues to break- astonishing new ground by bringing to life the magic of conception, pregnancy, and brith. Deep inside a woman's body, a miracle occurs. An egg and a sperm meet and a new human being is created. Through the unique photographs of Lennart Nilsson, we see the fascinating process of fertilization unfold and watch as an embryo develops from a tiny cluster of cells into a fetus, growing and maturing day by day until the time comes for a newborn to meet the world outside the womb.
