Publisher's description
Following Martin Parr’s celebrated Boring Postcards series, a new installment of his bizarre postcard collection. Domestic icons in a Catholic tradition, these cards were produced in the countries of Southern Europe during the 1970s, showing shamelessly idealized photographs of romantic lovers–frolicking in the hills, holding hands in the sunset, staring dreamily into each others eyes–and of perfect families–greeting Dad after work, in the kitchen baking a cake with Mom, singing together at the piano… A revealing social-historical document and very funny, for all fans of Martin Parr and connoisseurs of photographic kitsch.
