August Sander (1876-1964) spent his life intending to create a collective portrait of the German people, an undertaking which remained incomplete at the time of his death. This reconstruction by Keller, a professor of art history, in collaboration with Gunther Sander, the photographer's son, was compiled from Sander's notes and negatives. The photographs cover the years of the Kaisers, the Weimar Republic, the Nazi regime, and the early Federal Republic and have become a landmark in the history of photography. 512 pages; 431 full-page duo-toned b&w plates + 75 text illustrations; 9.25 x 11.75 inches.
