Penn Station, New Yorkby: Stettner, Louis

Penn Station, New York
by: Stettner, Louis

Hardcover. New York , Thames and Hudson, 1st, 2015, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 112 pages. Hardcover with dust jacket. Very clean, like new in publishers shrink-wrap. Louis Stettner is one of the last living members of the avant-garde New York School of photography of the 1950s, which challenged many of the long-accepted foundations of art form. His Penn Station series of the late 1950s represents some of his most important work, gathered here in a single form for the first time. The series is less a portrait of the building than a study of people at once in transit and in suspension.

Photographs of Edouard Baldus, Theby: Daniel, Malcolm R.

Photographs of Edouard Baldus, The
by: Daniel, Malcolm R.

Hardcover. New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1st, 1994, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 293 pages. Hardcover with dust jacket. Sunfading to spine. Price sticker to rear jacket. A very clean, unmarked copy with only minor edgewear to dust jacket. The photographer Edouard Baldus, a central figure in the early development of French photography and acknowledged in his day as a pioneer in the still-experimental field, was widely acclaimed both for his aesthetic sensitivity and for his technical prowess. Establishing a new mode of representing architecture and describing the emerging modern landscape with magnificent authority, he enjoyed high patronage in the 1850s and 1860s....This book, the first to chronicle the life and career of this important artist, brings his work once more before the public. The superb quality of the reproductions captures the subtle tones and soft matte surfaces of the original prints, many of which are published here for the first time.
