biographies of photography's best
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The focus here is on the leading photographers of the last century, who they were and how they earned their reputations. Short, well written essays on each artist make this a good introduction to the field. Great reproductions: lots of obvious favorites, plus enough lesser known works and quirky choices to keep things interesting. A few big names are noticeably missing, but there are a lot of younger talents here too who will still be popular into the next century.
Covering the Pro Photographers Basics exceptionally well

A laconic but vivid portrail of some of this century's greatest,most heterogeneous photographers, including Nan Goldin, Imogen Cunningham, Helmut Newton, Ansel Adams, Herb Ritts,et al. The colours are wonderful and selections eclectic--a venerable balance of talent and composition. A must for any beginning photographer or photography connoisseur.

Filled with some great color photos and a lot of modern photographiers that are not always looked at. A beautiful picture of a rose in the center, some cute pictures of monkeys, and alot of powerful stuff.
