A collection of photographs by Magnum Photos photographer Larry Tawell. Mennonites are Christians who are actively involved in the issues of peace and social justice, and also place religious importance on nonviolence and volunteer activities. It seems that photography is generally refused for religious reasons, but Mennonite-born photographer Larry Tawell from Ontario, Canada, has been allowed to take pictures due to years of friendship with them, and Tael I photographed Mennonites, who lived and migrated in the countryside of North America and Mexico for about 10 years. He refuses new technologies, products, and ways of thinking that he judges to be contrary to his own religious life, and lives a harsh and simple life because he lives a self-sufficient life by farming and livestock farming in a harsh natural environment. The strength and beauty of Mennonites, who survive in good faith and in a straightforward manner, while being imagined to be in constant financial difficulty. A masterpiece of documentary photography that could only be achieved by Larry Tael, who still lives on a farm in the suburbs of Ontario. French version. Published in Parr & Badger Vol.II.
