What would an animal look like if it were a human? The question is actually a contradiction in terms, and Tein Lucasson's answer is as humorous as it is creative. With digital photo technology, he combines pet portraits with human poses, celebrating each animal's unique personality, while drawing on his passion for costume and art history.
Open up Animal and discover a raccoon sporting a sailor's suit, an aristocratic pig enthroned above a roulette table, and a giraffe grinning in its thick wool sweater.
