Boyhood Photos of J.H. Lartigue: The Family Album of a Gilded Ageby: Jacques-Henri Lartigue/ Ami Guichard

Boyhood Photos of J.H. Lartigue: The Family Album of a Gilded Age
by: Jacques-Henri Lartigue/ Ami Guichard

Hardcover. Switzerland, A. Guichard, 1st, 1966, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, A very good hardcover copy, 126 pages with decorative burgundy boards and gilding on the spine and covers. A book of 164 facsimile tipped-in plates. Production by Edita S. A. Lausanne. Illustration by Imprimerie Centrale Lausanne S. A. Text by Offset Jean Genoud S. A. Lausanne. Engraving by Photogravure Dupuis & Cie Lausanne. Binding by Maurice Busenhart, Lausanne. At the age of seven, at the begining of the 20th century, Lartique received a camera as a gift from his father, and from then on, day after day, he would try to 'fix' scenes of his domestic life, having been allowed by the conditions of his life sufficient leisure to do so." Roger Therond. In this, Lartique's premier collection, presented in the form of an album of pasted-in pictures, we are treated to his madcap antics with flying machines and automobiles when they were still a novelty. With his cousins, we have pictures of their three-seater peddle racing machine of their own invention - gliders built and flown in the field, crashes included, an inflatable suit for drifting in the river without getting wet . These are photographs one would not see in a typical family album, rather, they are the record of a joyful and artistic youth. Clean copy.
