Folio original cloth illustrated with impressive full-size black and white photographs throughout. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. One of the 20th century's most important photographers Roy DeCarava practiced photography for almost six decades spearheading the genre of black and white fine art photography with his affection for the individual creative process.
