About this Item

Black cloth. 4to. Printed black dust jacket. Illustrated. First edition. A collection of the work of six photographers (Werner Bischof, Robert Capa, Andre Kertesz, David Seymour, Dan Weiner and Leonard Freed) whose photography helped keep humanitarian documentary work in the public eye. The book is based on a groundbreaking exhibition at the Smithsonian Institution. Over two hundred photographs by these masters (four of whom died on assignment in the 1950s) are brought together in this volume, which has been printed by sheet-fed gravure in Holland. Included as well are the full details of the lives and work of these men as they went about their jobs recording moments in history that their eyes and unique talent have elevated to works of concerned art. A very good, bright copy with minor wear. The text is very good with some light soiling. The jacket is very good with some wear to the spine tips. The reverse of the jacket has a small tape repair to the upper spine. Scarce. Foreign postage extra on this heavy book.
