- Book Synopsis
- Brassaï's most famous portraits and cityscapes, collected in this title in the acclaimed Photofiles series, form a unique vision of life in pre- and post-war Europe. No photographer is more closely associated with a city than Brassaï (1899-1984) is with Paris. From the moment he moved there in 1924, he devoted his life and art to immortalizing his adopted city - capturing the street life by day, the cafés and the Seine by night. A friend of Picasso and Henry Miller, Brassaï knew and photographed the leading figures of his day - Giacometti, Sartre, Dalì, Matisse and Mann among them. His most famous portraits and cityscapes, collected in this volume, form a unique vision of life in pre- and post-war Europe. The Photofile Series Photofile brings together the best work of the world's greatest photographers in an attractive, accessible, pocket-sized format. Handsome and collectable, the books are printed to the highest standards. Each one contains over sixty full-page reproductions printed in superb duotone, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography.
