本书是乔尔•梅耶罗维茨广受好评的摄影集《野花》的新版和增订版，现在，以更大的开本收录了新的和未公开过的图片。

这些野花都是乔尔•梅耶罗维茨四十年来在不经意之中拍摄的。1983年，他这些照片汇集成了一本摄影集，也就是他的第三本书，并在此后的几十年里成为经典。《野花》涵盖了街道摄影、肖像、静物、自然风景、城市风景等题材。

This new and expanded edition of Joel Meyerowitz’s widely acclaimed photobook, Wild Flowers ― now, in a larger format, features new and unpublished images.

For nearly forty years Joel Meyerowitz has tended his visual garden in the streets and parks and cities he has visited or lived in. He goes out into the streets open-eyed and passionate, carrying a machine which is perfectly suited to the task of taking it all in. The Leica, as quick as the flick of an eyelash, effortlessly interrupts time, stopping and holding it forever.

These walks gave shape to new territory for him, which he began to think of as a garden that reflected the variety of his observations. Then, one day, while editing, Meyerowitz stumbled upon a small group of these flower photographs which he had gathered unknowingly. He began to believe that this innocent premise might be enough to tie together many of his other photographic concerns under the nominal subject of ‘flowers,’ which, given the surprises of city life, he viewed as flowers gone somewhat berserk―and so Wild Flowers was born.
