196813831New York: Museum of Modern Art 1968. First edition. Hardcover. A fine copy bound in bright blue cloth with black spine stamping in a fine dust jacket. As Lawrence Durrell puts it in his perceptive introduction "one senses two strong flavors which complement each other. Firstly that of his sharply selective yet tender treatment of light and dark; secondly the flavor of the capital city which he adopted as a muse." This book contains a retrospective sampling of Brassai's finest work ranging over some four decades. There are portraits of famous artists and of unknown workmen and cocottes a selection of his famous series on the streets of Paris by night and his sensitive renderings of wall graffiti. In all of them appears the seemingly paradoxical combination of painstaking craftsmanship and romantic sensitivity that makes his work so appealing and so moving. 61 illustrations 80pp. <br/><br/> Museum of Modern Art hardcover books
