Elliot Erwitt: New York
Tax included.
Revised Edition
There are many illustrated books that deal with New York, but certainly none like this one. With "New York", photography legend Elliott Erwitt pays homage to his hometown in a monochromatic homage, creating an illustrated book that can be classified without hesitation as a work of historical character. Born in Paris, he emigrated to the USA in 1939 and moved to the Big Apple in 1948. Since then, his camera has been his constant companion as he roamed the streets of the cosmopolitan city.
In the revised edition, Erwitt presents exciting black-and-white photographs taken from his entire career. On 16 new pages, readers get their first glimpse of previously unpublished images from the 50s and 60s, allowing them to immerse themselves in a New York of days long gone. A little nostalgia is guaranteed.
The illustrated book perfectly reflects New York and its soul. Celebrities are on an equal footing with the average New Yorker, everyday moments shape contemporary history in a cheerful and sometimes slightly bizarre way that is characteristic of Erwitt's work. It is not for nothing that he is one of the best street photographers in the world. His pictures are not only lively and authentic, but are characterized by a very special irony of the everyday situation from which they arose. This illustrated book is fun to look at again and again and always offers new surprises.
"New York" is the perfect coffee table book for anyone who can't get enough of this impressive mega-city. Even die-hard fans of the metropolis will find previously undiscovered sides of the city here. For all admirers of Elliott Erwitt's photography, the illustrated book is a must-have for your home collection.
