Before his death in 2009 Willy Ronis was one of the last of the surviving documentary photographers in the humanist tradition of Kertesz and Cartier-Bresson. During the 40s and 50s he was a prolific chronicler of many corners of French social life especially the working people of Paris. He tended to wear his politics on his sleeve often photographing strikes demonstrations occupations of factories and the like. For this reason he also kept his distance from the American and British press. In this scarce volume Pierre Mac Orlan offers his paean to the authenticity of these working class neighborhoods of Belleville-Menilmontant. Ronis discovered the area through Daniel Pipart a painter and friend of his wife who kept a studio there. He visited and photographed regularly from 1947-1950 with the aim of one day making a book from the images. Ronis's images like countless Realist artists before him aim to capture the poetry of the streets. Ever respectful of his subjects Ronis's gaze is always affectionate and discrete. Unlike many documentary photographers who search out freaks and weirdoes Ronis seeks out the typical and the ordinary. Yet beneath the surface one senses a subtle sense of melancholy and muted nostalgia. A masterpiece of book design and typography! The images contained in Belleville-Menilmontant are certainly among Ronis's finest and provide an essential point of entry into his work. Included in MM. Auer: 802 Photo Books. B. Artaud hardcover

1929002018New York 1929. Willy Pogány Hungarian/American 1882-1955. ORIGINAL PEN-AND-INK PORTRAIT OF THE MAD HATTER From his illustrated 1929 Alice's Adventures In Wonderland published by E. P. Dutton. This marvelous drawing is that illustrating "Who Stole the Tarts" from Chapter 11 page 172 wherein The Queen of Hearts is accusing the Mad Hatter of the crime. Pogany's version has the Mad Hatter trembling with fear as he clutches his tea cup and toast. The image is 4.75" x 3.5" situated in one corner of a large sheet of 11" by 14" heavy art paper. Pogány has initialed the drawing at the lower right. His lightly penciled outline and notations can also be seen. The detail of the drawing which is sharply inked and in Very Good condition indeed is spectacular in comparison to the actual printed illustration see our photo of the actual size of the book image to compare. We originally saw this illustration in The Book Sail's 16th Anniversary Catalogue way back in 1984. It's our pleasure to finally be able to both handle it and find it a good home. Signed. Unbound. Very Good. Illus. by Willy Pogany. Paperback books

For Pogany<br/>the Hungarian had made Omar the Persian live again" Crowell.
