On her Long Island farm, actress, filmmaker, and model Isabella Rossellini recently raised a group of heritage chickens. Fascinated by their physical changes and social pecking order, she asked portrait photographer Patrice Casanova to photograph the birds. In this funny, informative, and charming book she relates her chicken rearing adventure in drawings and comments of her own and Casanova’s portrait photographs.
