Frédéric Lagrange – Tsz Shan Monastery

A white statue rises above a forested hillside, its face calm against grey cloud. At the base, a monk in brown robes crosses a stone plaza toward a bronze bowl.

In other frames a monk sits cross-legged in meditation beneath a pine, and a hand guides a brush through lines of calligraphy beside an ink stone.

Frédéric Lagrange shot the Tsz Shan Monastery for an ad campaign and a book with London agency Winkreative. The Tang dynasty-style complex covers 500,000 square feet.
