Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. Dust Jacket Condition: Gut bis sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 80 pp., 31 ills. clothbound - In 1967, Penn traveled on assignment from the American fashion magazine Vogue to Dahomey in west Africa, now the Republic of Benin. His portraits of natives taken in his portable studio built especially for the…occasion reflect Penn's fascination with foreign cultures, as do his photographs of culturally significant clay figures of the voodoo god Legba. Thirty-five years after their publication in Vogue, Irving Penn now presents these portraits of tribal people and his photographs of Legba altars in book form for the first time. With texts by leading anthropologists and Irving Penn himself, this volume is an extraordinary photographic document of African culture.
