This lot also contains the essay book by Rankin. He was commissioned by The Macallan to create a limited edition series of photographs for the first year of the landmark commission series, The Macallan Masters of Photography. 1000 bottles were released, each of which had the original picture taken by Rankin. The book has all 1000 pictures. The photographs were shot at the Easter Elchies House on The Macallan Estate, and together form an essay depicting one summer. The album contains nude portraits of Tuuli, Rankin's muse. She's pictured draped over barrels, at wash backs and stills, generally doing the sort of stuff that would scare the distillery cat! Others focus on the flora and fauna of the estate.
