19802611New York: np 1980. First edition. Clamshell box. Fine. EXTREMELY RARE COMPLETE SUITE OF SEVEN LARGE SILVER PRINTS FROM EINSTEIN'S FAMOUS PHOTO SHOOT AT PRINCETON WITH ROMAN VISHNIAC. Each print is signed by Vishniac and dated "At Princeton 1942" in his hand below the image and numbered on the back. "One day Vishniac decided to visit Albert Einstein at Princeton to offer greetings from mutual friends in Berlin. Uninvited he hoped Einstein would pose for a portrait but Einstein had little interest. Vishniac recalled:<br /> <br /> It was a singular experience. An idea had suddenly come to him and the room was filled with the movement of the great man's thought. I waited several minutes and then when I saw that he did not intend to say anything more to me and that he was off in a world of his own I started taking pictures.<br /> <br /> Einstein later admitted that a Vishniac photograph taken that day was his favorite portrait" Encyclopedia of Twentieth-Century Photography. <br /> <br /> Vishniac provided details about this portolfio in a letter to an original recipient the letter is not included here explaining:<br /> <br /> The size of the edition's limitation is uncertain due to my age and only spare time to make them. The most expensive portfolios - Ansel Adams Kertesz - are limited in large numbers I can never measure up - 999 1001 and similar. <br /> <br /> The originality of Portfolio "Einstein" consists of its special character. It is made not to get images but the feeling that you are present during the creativity by the Great Man. All pictures are made with "hidden camera" method.<br /> <br /> The value of this portfolio is great and can hardly be estimated today. <br /> <br /> Princeton/New York: 1942 negatives; 1980 silver prints.

"Focuses on correcting a widely accepted story that Einstein was a major supporter a 'champion' of the state of Israel - a story told and retold primarily by the mainstream media. While Einstein was a secular Jew had mixed feelings about Zionism and supported the goal of a Jewish 'homeland' within Palestine he never wavered from arguing forcefully for equal rights and equal power for the Arabs - whom he called 'kinfolk' of the Jews. Some of these essays and letters covering the years from 1919 to 1955 have never been translated or published." - dust jacket. "It's a pity that the Zionist movement as embodied in the State of Israel took a direction so divergent from the path advocated by the Jewish people's greatest intellect." - Michael Palumbo. "While sadly it seems Einstein's fear that Israel would become a 'captive of narrow nationalism' has been realized his humanism and call for equal rights and equal power between Jews and Palestinians in Israel/Palestine remain an inspiration and model today." - Adam Horowitz. xviii 334 pp. Bibliography List of Sources Notes Index.
