Nach Studien in Ungarn und Deutschland kam er 1924 nach Paris. Sein Freund André Kertész überredete ihn seine Faszination für das Pariser Nacht-Leben in Fotos einzufangen. 1933 erschien sein Fotobuch Paris de Nuit das ihn sofort berühmt machte. Kurz darauf wurde er zur Ausstellung Photography: 1839–1937 des Museums of Modern Art eingeladen. Brassaï war vielseitig talentiert und beschränkte sich nicht auf die Fotografie: Er konnte zeichnen malen bildhauern und schreiben. Er pflegte unter anderem Freundschaften mit dem Künstler Pablo Picasso dem deutsch-britischen Fotografen Bill Brandt und dem amerikanischen Schriftsteller Henry Miller. Berühmt wurde sein Buch Conversations avec Picasso das er 1964 veröffentlichte. 1975 wurde sein Buch Henry Miller – Die Pariser Jahre veröffentlicht. Brassaïs Grab befindet sich auf dem Friedhof Montparnasse in Paris. 010 Frankfurt, S. Fischer, 1976 unknown

He returned to the City of Light in 1924 joining a number of Hungarian expatriates and taking a job as a journalist. He supplemented his writing with photographs of the city and it was in that medium that he made his mark. Adopting the pseudonym Brassaï his 1933 collection of photographs <i>Paris de nuit </i>was pioneering in its technique as well as for thevarietyof scenes it depicted. Inspired by Toulouse-Lautrec Brassaï captured the people of Paris from the Left Bank's brothels and gangs to the city's cultural institutions and elite society.</p><p>Our letter refers to Brassaï's exhibition "Trente panneaux couleur" at Paris' Galerie Rencontre which was held from October 7 to November 7 1970. </p><p>Enton Hall was an estate built in 1880 and later converted into a health spa. Its most famous client was Ian Fleming who after his 1956 stay included James Bond's visit to a fictionalized version of the spa called "Shrublands" in his thriller <i>Thunderball.</i></p><p>Born in Hungary Lorant made a career as a filmmaker in Austria and Germany before being jailed in 1933 for his opposition to Hitler. Upon his release he immigrated to the United States where over the course of 40 years he authored and edited numerous photography books including <i>Lincoln: A Picture Story of His Life</i> <i>The Glorious Burden </i>about United States Presidentsand <i>Sieg Heil!</i> a history of Germany. Lorant had many prominent friends including John and Jacqueline Kennedy Marilyn Monroe and Marlene Dietrich. He was an advisor to <i>Life</i>magazine founder Henry Luce and an early supporter of Winston Churchill. </p><p>Accompanied by a 1991 letter written by Brassaï's wife Gilberte Boyer as well as a fragment in her hand about Stefan written on the verso of Brassaï's letter on illustrated Enton Hall Hydro stationery.</p><p>In fine condition and uncommon.</p> books
