Item description from seller

159pp. Brown cloth. gilt lettering on the spine. Minor liftoff on the bottom of the front endpapers, toning to the extremities, otherwise a fine, unmarked copy. Unclipped pictorial jacket is bright with only superficial wear. in mylar sleeve. 59 color and 81 duotone illustrations.". Boldly and without apology, he explored photography's exalted and base natures. The work veers from black-and-white to color, cerebral to carnal, a photographic equivalent of Freud's Madonna/whore complex. Outerbridge made pictures for art and for commerce. Some are subtle, others shameless. Many were reproduced widely; more than a few were censored and some, including the work in the library's exhibition, had never even previously been printed. Any single photograph is just as likely to pay homage to classical ideals as it is to celebrate the eclectic. The power and pull of Outerbridge's ouevre, the reason it grabs and holds our attention, is that it swings both ways." Size: 10 1/4" x 11 1/2".
