``Red Thistle'' is a collection of works by Italian photographer Davide Monteleone. Born in 1974, he originally wanted to be an engineer, but later switched to photography and studied journalism. He began his professional career as a photographer in 2000, working mainly for domestic and international news magazines, and was drawn to Russia when he first visited in 2001, staying in Moscow until 2003. Even after returning to Japan, my interest in Russia did not decline, but only increased, and I continued to visit Russian countries many times, and the series of my visits were compiled in 2007 as "Russian Soul - Anima Russa", which can be found here. This book covers the people, climate, culture, customs, etc. of the Caucasus (Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Dagestan, etc.) region, located on the edge of the Russian Federation, sandwiched between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, and adjacent to Turkey and Iran.
