Such is the importance of the avifauna present in these ecosystems. The floodable savannas, which contribute to the scenic beauty of the area, are also water regulators, nutrient exporters, and reservoirs of diversity. In this privileged region, capybaras, anteaters, anacondas, caimans —to name a few— abound, and, of course, birds, spectacular and unexpected birds, of which the two hundred fresh and spontaneous images offered in this book bear witness.The amazement of Murray Cooper with Casanare is simply contagious!It happens when he, photographer and author of this book, believing he had seen everything there was to see of Colombian nature, steps into this region again, nestled in the Orinoquía, and surrenders to its landscapes, its people, and its fauna.But this wonderful ecology also faces threats. Hence, it is imperative to reconcile development and conservation in its management. The beauty captured here should move us to do so. Let us also catch this commitment!","brand":"Weaving the Planet | Villegas Editores | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51854594932949,"sku":"9789588818467","price":206000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/Aves_Casanare.jpg?v=1754891432"},{"product_id":"jardines-de-colombia","title":"JARDINES DE COLOMBIA","description":"Unlike architecture, sculpture, or painting, the art of gardening produces works that grow, bloom, transform, and disappear.

A place where the wonders of creation are present in ecosystems ranging from dry forest and tropical humid jungle, through mid and high Andean forests, to the uniqueness of its páramos, of which the department houses more than half of those in the country.There is no doubt that we are truly fortunate to have this type of territory, which allows us unique and unrepeatable experiences, while making us rethink our role on earth and the duty we have to care for and respect them.This book has been published thanks to the support of the Corporación Autónoma Regional de Boyacá, Corpoboyacá, which established the Regional System of Protected Areas (SIRAP) as an inter-institutional coordination strategy to manage actions for the conservation and in situ protection of the jurisdiction's strategic ecosystems.In the last 7 years, the Corporation has intensified the study of ecosystems, the declaration of protected areas, the formulation of their management plans, and the execution of programs and projects aimed at their protection and restoration.Its work in environmental education has successfully reached the communities residing in or near them, contributing to their economic and social sustainability through restoration work or their involvement in green businesses such as ecotourism and the sustainable use of biodiversity.","brand":"Weaving the Planet | Villegas Editores | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51854610333909,"sku":"9789588836348","price":206000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/Areas_Protegidas_de_Boyoca.jpg?v=1754891838"},{"product_id":"colombia-magia-salvaje","title":"COLOMBIA MAGIA SALVAJE","description":"This innovative editorial essay, based on the original video of the documentary Colombia, magia salvaje and using its images for the first time in a large-format book, showcases the country's impressive biodiversity, while warning about the threats it faces, with the aim of generating environmental awareness that, through education, promotes a national commitment to its defense.The journey of more than 125,000 kilometers — from the Caribbean to the Amazon, from the Pacific to the Llanos, including the island territories — reveals more than 20 ecosystems teeming with life and a country that many had not suspected. And it is understandable: by living in it, we often forget that it hosts the second greatest biodiversity on the planet.Like the film, the book is read from surprise to surprise. Birds and hammerhead sharks in Malpelo and Gorgona; crab invasions in Providencia; humpback whales in Utría; capybaras, jaguars, and anacondas in Amazonas; colossal crocodiles in the Orinoco; condors in Cocuy and Puracé; birds and frogs in the rainy Chocó jungle; chromatic displays in Caño Cristales; sudden tepuis, unpublished paintings, and suspicions of cultures yet unseen in Chiribiquete. And in the Sierra Nevada, Nabuzimake, the sacred town of the Arhuacos.That is the Colombia we show to reaffirm our affection and to be able to defend it from the abusive exploitation of its woods, harmful illicit crops, destructive illegal mining, infamous wildlife trafficking, and the ruthless devastation of its forests.Resulting from interdisciplinary work, this project — which included a whole Colombian component of music, voices, texts, and experience — should bear fruit.

Its graceful figure, dazzling colors, and the fascinating acrobatic ability it can display in front of a flower prevent it. Of the animals that move through the air, the hummingbird is the one that best masters the art of flying: forward, backward, upward, downward. These birds, whose size ranges from 5 to 20 cm, exist only in America, from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, with the greatest concentration in the tropics. Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela have the greatest diversity of hummingbirds, whose family includes more than 100 genera and over 350 species. Specialized in sipping nectar from flowers and incidentally pollinating them, the story of hummingbirds is as magical as their charm, yet still elusive. However, we know that several ancient cultures honored them and left testimony of it. It is enough to recall the hummingbird that appears in one of the Nazca lines. All of this is addressed by the fascinating scientific perspective that this book and its beautiful images offer on the evolution, biology, anatomy, ecology, and other aspects of these ineffable little birds. A perspective as captivating as the object of its study itself. At a time when the planet sees its fauna, flora, waters, climate, and, in general, much of its resources threatened, a book about this extraordinary pollinator, which plays an important role in the conservation of flora, and where we present 100 different species found in Colombia, captured through the lens of the great South African photographer Murray Cooper, is more than timely.","brand":"Weaving the Planet | Villegas Editores | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51854612660437,"sku":"9789588818375","price":219000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/humming_5f7dee2e-eee2-45fe-b315-36eb9508c705.jpg?v=1754891912"},{"product_id":"trekking-colombia","title":"TREKKING COLOMBIA","description":"A stunning visual journey that is a love dialogue with Colombian nature and a testimony of attachment to its lands and waters, its deserts and jungles, its snows and páramos, but above all, to its mountains, those enormous masses that the author fell in love with since childhood in his native Quindío.

Starting from the last human settlements on their slopes, the ascent takes us into the overwhelming beauty of the cloud forests and the solitary visions of the páramos and superpáramos, until reaching the highest points of the country via the snowy path: the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, the Sierra Nevada del Cocuy, the Nevados del Ruiz, Santa Isabel, Tolima and Huila, and the southern volcanoes.This volume is extraordinarily complemented by the texts of experts Juan Pablo Ruiz and Carlos Mauricio Vega.","brand":"Weaving the Planet | Villegas Editores | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51854616297685,"sku":"9789589393260","price":312000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/altacolombia_ing_0e37ddde-13a5-476e-86ee-3cabb0b37cab.jpg?v=1754892064"},{"product_id":"pedro-nel-gomez-ingles","title":"PEDRO NEL GÓMEZ","description":"Master Pedro Nel was born deep in the jungle, beside turbulent rivers. His childhood was spent among the forests, mountains, and paths, immersed in the full fury of our tropics. From there comes his devotion, his almost mystical reverence for nature and animals. The appearance of this book reveals the eagerness to present the work of one of the most multifaceted artists in Colombia. Mario Calderón Rivera, Manager of the Central Mortgage Bank, brought together the Bank of the Republic and the Central Insurance Company in this endeavor. Additionally, he employed people of fine sensitivity to analyze, photograph, design, and print it, coordinated by Inés Gutiérrez Gómez.

First cataloged in ancient Greece in commemoration of Zeus, today it is the national flower of Spain, Monaco, Slovenia, and the Balearic Islands. The Romans also identified it with Jupiter and Diana the huntress. Since then, many stories have emerged around this flower, making this plant perhaps the one that has inspired the greatest number of myths in human history. Christians associate it with the maternal love of the Virgin and with the nails of Christ (hence its name in Spanish); for Eastern cultures, it is loaded with religious and political meanings... The carnation, symbol of multiple movements and of the noblest human feelings, has been represented in art since the Middle Ages and endures today in pictorial representations with its characteristic passion.Well, this book is exactly that: a collection of carnation stories that includes beautiful images, unknown stories, and surprising facts about this plant which, moreover, has become Colombia's most important export flower. In fact, the book concludes by explaining how our nation supplies almost all the carnations in the world.","brand":"Weaving the Planet | Villegas Editores | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51854617280725,"sku":"9789588818948","price":154000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/HISTORIASDELCLAVEL_a381c909-00ff-43de-a138-3a6029acee7c.png?v=1756326775"},{"product_id":"colombia-magia-salvaje-va","title":"COLOMBIA MAGIA SALVAJE (VA)","description":"This innovative editorial essay, based on the original video of the documentary Colombia, magia salvaje and using its images for the first time in a large-format book, showcases the country's impressive biodiversity, while warning about the threats it faces, with the aim of generating environmental awareness that, through education, promotes a national commitment to its defense.The journey of more than 125,000 kilometers — from the Caribbean to the Amazon, from the Pacific to the Llanos, including the island territories — reveals more than 20 ecosystems teeming with life and a country that many had not suspected. And it is understandable: by living in it, we often forget that it hosts the second greatest biodiversity on the planet.Like the film, the book is read from surprise to surprise. Birds and hammerhead sharks in Malpelo and Gorgona; crab invasions in Providencia; humpback whales in Utría; capybaras, jaguars, and anacondas in Amazonas; colossal crocodiles in the Orinoco; condors in Cocuy and Puracé; birds and frogs in the rainy Chocó jungle; chromatic colors in Caño Cristales; sudden tepuis, unpublished paintings, and suspicions of cultures yet unseen in Chiribiquete. And in the Sierra Nevada, Nabuzimake, the sacred town of the Arhuacos.This is the Colombia we show to reaffirm our affection and to be able to defend it from the abusive exploitation of its woods, harmful illicit crops, destructive illegal mining, infamous wildlife trafficking, and the ruthless devastation of its forests.The result of interdisciplinary work, this project — which included a whole Colombian component of music, voices, texts, and experience — should bear fruit.

The author contributes eco-philosophical texts that are almost as striking as the photographs, because Hurtado is what could be called a “humanist of the 21st century,” someone who connects us with that nature, with other travelers, and with his own soul as a poet. In this book, 15 paradises appear to which, as the author says, “I approach with emotion. Five regions of the country: the Cordilleras, the Atlantic, the Pacific, the Eastern Plains, and the Amazon Rainforest. From each region I choose one or two representative landscapes and, from them, I extend into the surrounding environment… For all readers in love with the country, here are my affectionate and determined steps across the beautiful and sometimes troubled skin of Colombia.”","brand":"Weaving the Planet | Villegas Editores | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52198991823061,"sku":"9789588818887","price":245000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/PARAISOSDECOLOMBIANOBKGRND.png?v=1764372135"},{"product_id":"tulum-gypset","title":"TULUM GYPSET","description":"A hub for barefoot bohemians and glamorous goddesses, Tulum is a Mayan hideaway that perfectly distills the gypset lifestyle.

At the very heart of Europe, the gigantic Alpine mountain range includes some of the most grandiose natural sites in the world, such as Mont Blanc, the Jungfrau, the Matterhorn, and their glaciers. Tourism began in the late 1800s and grew tremendously over the next centuries, especially with the rise of winter sports. This book offers a charming tour of a bygone era , when the first mountain trains and cog railways were carrying men in lederhosen and women in long dresses to the foot of the glacier, when local guides accompanied tourists riding on mules; a time when the first alpinists were considered mad, and skiers were a curiosity. Through photochromes, photographs, and color postcards of the 19th and 20th centuries, through travel posters and tourist brochures, we cross passes such as the Mont-Cenis, Simplon, Brenner, and St. Gotthard; climb Mont Blanc, the Eiger, the Wetterhorn, and the Dolomites; marvel at crystal-clear lakes in Switzerland, Italy, Bavaria, and Slovenia; explore Tyrol, the Via Mala, and the Engadin; and spend the winter season at grand hotels in Gstaad, Grindelwald, Davos, St. Moritz, and Cortina. This is a journey dotted with literary quotes by travel writers that evokes these happy days of pristine snow and untouched slopes.","brand":"Weaving The Planet | Taschen | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Multilingual (English, French, German)","offer_id":53458044977365,"sku":"9783836573559","price":800000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/b0d3eab56bb53dc38b06562f7d4f668c.png?v=1773905287"},{"product_id":"02613-sebastiao-salgado-genesis","title":"Sebastião Salgado.

The GENESIS project, along with the Salgados’ Instituto Terra, is dedicated to showing the beauty of our planet, reversing the damage done to it, and preserving it for the future. On over 30 trips—by foot, light aircraft, boats, canoes, and even balloons, through extreme temperatures and in sometimes dangerous conditions—Salgado has created a collection of images showing us nature, animals, and indigenous peoples in such intense beauty it takes our breath away . The reach is truly global. Through Salgado’s lens, one discovers the animal species and volcanoes of the Galápagos; the penguins, sea lions, cormorants, and whales of the South Atlantic; Brazilian alligators and jaguars; and African lions, leopards, and elephants. We travel over icebergs in the Antarctic, the volcanoes of Central Africa, the ravines of the Grand Canyon, and the glaciers of Alaska. We encounter the Stone Age Korowai people of West Papua, nomadic Dinka cattle farmers in Sudan, Nenets and their reindeer herds in the Arctic Circle, as well as the Mentawai jungle communities on islands west of Sumatra. In characteristic monochrome, Salgado’s painterly notes are perfectly tuned to these sublime scenes , capturing sweeping aerial panoramas as much as the most intricate details and textures, from a reptilian skin to the fur coat of the Nenet people of northern Siberia.

On over 30 trips—by foot, light aircraft, boats, canoes, and even balloons, through extreme temperatures and in sometimes dangerous conditions—Salgado has created a collection of images showing us nature, animals, and indigenous peoples in such intense beauty it takes our breath away . The reach is truly global. Through Salgado’s lens, one discovers the animal species and volcanoes of the Galápagos; the penguins, sea lions, cormorants, and whales of the South Atlantic; Brazilian alligators and jaguars; and African lions, leopards, and elephants. We travel over icebergs in the Antarctic, the volcanoes of Central Africa, the ravines of the Grand Canyon, and the glaciers of Alaska. We encounter the Stone Age Korowai people of West Papua, nomadic Dinka cattle farmers in Sudan, Nenets and their reindeer herds in the Arctic Circle, as well as the Mentawai jungle communities on islands west of Sumatra. In characteristic monochrome, Salgado’s painterly notes are perfectly tuned to these sublime scenes , capturing sweeping aerial panoramas as much as the most intricate details and textures, from a reptilian skin to the fur coat of the Nenet people of northern Siberia. The exquisitely reproduced images are arranged not by theme but rather conceived as a journey around the globe, immersing them in Salgado’s vision of the Earth’s mesmerizing scale, order, and beauty . This two-volume SUMO-size Art Edition is designed and edited by Lélia Wanick Salgado and numbered and signed by Sebastião Salgado. Leather-bound , it is presented with a bookstand in cherry wood veneer designed by Tadao Ando and a clothbound caption book explaining each stunning shot. Art Edition (No. 301–400), with a Tadao Ando bookstand and the print Marine Iguana, Galápagos, Ecuador (2004), signed by Sebastião Salgado.

The Garden at Eichstätt","description":"When Prince-Bishop Johann Konrad von Gemmingen (1593\/95–1612) undertook a radical renovation of the Willibaldsburg Castle , overlooking the Altmühl River in Eichstätt, Bavaria, he also created a surrounding palatial pleasure garden of magnificence and grandeur . To preserve the garden for future generations – and provide an ‘evergreen’ record of its contents, compiling plants from all four seasons and presenting them in that order – he commissioned the garden’s director, Nuremberg apothecary Basilius Besler (1561–1629), and a team of engravers to immortalize its treasures in print. The resulting Hortus Eystettensis , published in Nuremberg in 1613 and containing 367 hand-colored plates and detailed descriptions , was a work of meticulous execution and spectacular diversity, and remarkably expensive for its time. As the garden contained a variety of plants imported from exotic locales, the three volumes exhibited a remarkable range, covering a total of 90 families and 340 genera . Due to the decorative, stylized execution of these illustrations , which began to see plants in aesthetic, rather than merely practical or medicinal terms, the book is seen as a milestone in the art of botanical illustration. While published before a time of standardized classification systems, it was nonetheless later described by Carl Linnaeus as an “incomparable work”. Besler’s catalog long outlived the gardens, which were destroyed in 1634 by invading Swedish troops during the Thirty Years’ War. However, a lengthy redevelopment project at the historic site has culminated in the opening of the modern Bastion Garden in 1998, containing many of the plants shown in the Hortus Eystettensis . Offering high-quality reproductions of these arresting illustrations , based on the copy of the Hortus Eystettensis at the University Library of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt, this facsimile edition is accompanied by detailed plate descriptions of each plant’s botanical, pharmaceutical, and symbolic significance and an appendix of further essays which place the garden and the book in their historical contexts. This edition presents a valuable piece of botanical literature which, on the rare occasions where a copy appears on the market, can fetch prices of over $1,000,000 at auction. In line with Besler’s original intentions, this facsimile unfurls the garden to a wider audience and captures it for posterity.","brand":"Weaving The Planet | Taschen | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Multilingual (English, French, German)","offer_id":53458050810069,"sku":"9783836594332","price":800000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/843beb718f7f562b1f440b11da1c4ec2.png?v=1773905362"},{"product_id":"05368-sebastiao-salgado-amazonia","title":"Sebastião Salgado.

Here is a forest stretching to infinity that contains one-tenth of all living plant and animal species, the world’s largest single natural laboratory.” Salgado visited a dozen indigenous tribes that exist in small communities scattered across the largest tropical rainforest in the world.

The Library of Esoterica","description":"Celebrating the magick of the natural realm, Volume IV of The Library of Esoterica , delves into the symbolism, ceremony, and our ritual relationships with the botanical world. A visual journey through our interdependent evolution with nature , Plant Magick celebrates botanicals as creative muse – from ancient Greek sculptures to Renaissance paintings to visionary art inspired by psychoactive plants, cacti, and mushrooms. Our myths, beliefs, and shared stories are continually reflected in nature ; purity represented by the white lily or spiritual awakening by the bloom of the lotus. Our joys and laments are mirrored in the cycle of the seasons, in the seed birthing sprout, or in the dead leaf falling softly from winter branches. Plants, trees, and flowers as signifiers of transition are also deeply embedded within rites of passage rituals across global cultures. Rose petals strewn along the wedding aisle mark the evolution into womanhood and marriage. A wreath of lilies stands sentinel over an open grave. A lover’s bouquet awaits on the doorstep. The wooden May Day pole is circled by girls wearing crowns of woven daisies, celebrating the coming of spring. Birth, unions, and burials – cycles of joyful celebration and deep grieving, all are marked symbolically with herbs, flowers or branches of a tree – the integration of nature into ceremony our method of signifying catharsis . Since time immemorial, plants have also served as potent symbols within the religions of the world ; Buddha attaining enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree, Eve plucking the Apple of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden. From root to vibrant blossom, Plant Magick explores the fertile, interconnected history between plants and people, the multitude of ways in which we embrace plants in spiritual ceremony, as healing medicine, as creative muse and as gateways into deeper explorations of consciousness .","brand":"Weaving The Planet | Taschen | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"English","offer_id":53458069487829,"sku":"9783836585644","price":160000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true},{"title":"French","offer_id":53458069520597,"sku":"9783836585651","price":160000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":false},{"title":"German","offer_id":53458069553365,"sku":"9783836585668","price":160000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/53ce22afa25c0cc11862dda84a74ebde.png?v=1773905676"},{"product_id":"40707-martius-the-book-of-palms-45th-ed","title":"Martius.

The fronds were a reference to his groundbreaking Natural History of Palms: a work in three volumes , published between 1823 and 1853. This encyclopedic treasury of 240 exquisite chromolithographic illustrations was based on von Martius’s expeditions through Brazil and Peru. From 1817 to 1820, he traveled over 2,250 km (1,400 miles) through the Amazon basin to investigate natural history and native tribes with zoologist Johann Baptist von Spix. The result was an unrivaled catalogue of all known genera of the palm family , outlining the modern classification of palms, describing all the palms of Brazil, and producing the first maps of palm biogeography . Von Martius’s folio is unusual in its inclusion of cross-sectioned diagrams, conveying the architecture of these mighty trees, which central Europeans would have found hard to imagine accurately. Equally remarkable are the color landscapes showing various palms—often standing alone in simple and elegant beauty .","brand":"Weaving The Planet | Taschen | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Multilingual (English, French, German)","offer_id":53458083905749,"sku":"9783836587815","price":120000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Multilingual (Italian, Portuguese, Spanish)","offer_id":53458083938517,"sku":"9783836587822","price":120000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/d6500a320955406a4eea1f48a5185329.png?v=1773905818"},{"product_id":"40759-tree-houses-45th-ed","title":"Tree Houses. 45th Ed.","description":"The idea of climbing a tree for shelter, or just to see the earth from another perspective, is as old as humanity.

In the book’s foreword Salgado writes: “For me, it is the last frontier, a mysterious universe of its own, where the immense power of nature can be felt as nowhere else on earth. Here is a forest stretching to infinity that contains one-tenth of all living plant and animal species, the world’s largest single natural laboratory.” This connection to nature is echoed in Renzo Piano's bookstand design , of which he says it “is the simplest way to have the book in levitation . You do not even see the bookstand, you just see the book held in the air firmly. The open pages look like an albatros while flying .” Made from mild steel with powder coated painting, threaded central rods and rubber adjustable feet, the lectern was designed for the Amazônia project . Salgado visited a dozen indigenous tribes that exist in tiny communities scattered across the largest tropical rainforest in the world. He documented the daily life of the Yanomami, the Asháninka, the Yawanawá, the Suruwahá, the Zo’é, the Kuikuro, the Waurá, the Kamayurá, the Korubo, the Marubo, the Awá, and the Macuxi—their warm family bonds , their hunting and fishing, the manner in which they prepare and share meals, their marvelous talent for painting their faces and bodies, the significance of their shamans, and their dances and rituals. Sebastião Salgado has dedicated this book to the indigenous peoples of Brazil’s Amazon region: “My wish, with all my heart, with all my energy, with all the passion I possess, is that in 50 years’ time this book will not resemble a record of a lost world. Amazônia must live on.” INSTITUTO TERRA Founded in 1998 at Aimorés in the state of Minas Gerais, Instituto Terra is the culmination of Lélia Wanick Salgado and Sebastião Salgado’s lifelong activism and work as cultural documentarians. Through a scientific program of planting and raising saplings, the organization has performed a miraculous reforestation of the once infertile region and furthered the Salgados’ mission of reversing the damage done to our planet.

This subspecies has distinct features that are the result of thousands of years of evolution, making it perfectly suited to the deserts and mountains of Arabia. An essay by wildlife conservationist Andrew Spalton charts the animal’s epic journey from Africa to Arabia over the course of half a million years, highlighting its history and its current, critically endangered status. Imagery of the Arabian leopard as a symbol of strength, freedom and fearlessness has been found in ancient rock art, mosaics and paintings over the centuries, cementing its position as a revered and respected animal in Saudi Arabia and the world. The Royal Commission for AlUla has been focusing on wildlife conservation to protect this subspecies through the creation of the Arabian Leopard Fund. Key to these efforts is raising awareness about these beautiful cats, to galvanize local and international support for their protection. To this end, two editions of the books are available—a Classic and an Ultimate—featuring original artworks and photographs that capture the enduring spirit of the Arabian leopard.","brand":"Weaving The Planet | Assouline | Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53573795283157,"sku":"9781649800794","price":960000.0,"currency_code":"COP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6384\/7637\/files\/arabian-leopard-assouline-1.jpg?v=1775518608"}],"url":"https:\/\/weavingtheplanet.com\/en\/collections\/taxonomy-nature.oembed","provider":"Weaving The Planet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
