A supplement book with works by Juergen Teller for Purple Fashion Magazine Issue #5. It consists of snaps from Japan during the photographer's visit with his family and his son Ed. The text at the beginning of the book, which begins with "I Love Japan," lists in detail what Juergen Teller likes about Japan, and describes his trips to Tokyo, Kyoto, and Kanazawa.

After studying photography in Munich and moving to London, Jurgen Teller rose to prominence in fashion magazines such as "Vogue", "purple", and "iD", and created a unique world view where fashion, art, culture and reality intersect. Since the 1990s, he has collaborated with numerous big maisons and collection brands, and recently has been in charge of the season campaign for Bottega Veneta.
