HANS BOL was born in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in 1957, and now lives in the village of Ooij along the Waal River. His photographs have been included in numerous exhibitions and publications and are represented in the permanent collections of the Prentenkabinet, Leiden, The Netherlands; Nederlands Fotomuseum, Rotterdam; and the Fotomuseum Antwerpen, Antwerp, Belgium.
He has received major commissions to photograph the city of Antwerp, and the region of the Ooijpolder and Over-Betuwe in The Netherlands. In 2004 he published his first book, Het Formaat van Waterland (Waterland Images), a book combining his photographs with the poetry of Victor Vroomkoning. Altissimo, a book of his photographs made in the marble quarries around Carrara, Italy, is forthcoming. Bol is recognized as a master printer and is the printer for the Nederlands Fotomuseum.

This is an ongoing series of beautiful, yet affordable photography books of previously unpublished work by leading and emerging contemporary photographers. These books are printed to the high standards for which Lodima Press has become known—600-line screen quadtone on heavy cover stock, insuring that the reproductions are true to the originals.
Each book in the series contains from 10 to 18 photographs and includes a statement by the photographer. The books have 24 pages and are 9 5/8″ x 8 5/8″ in size.
The series was available in both a softbound edition limited to 1000 copies (sold individually and by subscription to the entire series), and a hardbound edition limited to 100 signed and numbered copies, originally available as a complete set and by subscription only. We are now making available the few signed and numbered books from incomplete sets.
