Heinrich Riebesehl worked for several years on a documentary series of around 1,000 photographs.

The series addresses the North German agricultural landscape, a theme he approached in an unsparingly austere manner.

The photographs present views across fields and pastures as a sober inventory of an environment shaped by human activity.
