Krass Clement - FØR NATTEN Havana - 2001

A very rare, stunning title in perfect condition by the well-known Danish photographer Krass Clement. It is his black and white portrait of contemporary Cuba, a country in transition: beautiful, brutal, and free of nostalgia.

Before the Night. Havana ('For natten' – 'Before the Night. Havana'). Copenhagen: Gyldendal, 2001. In original publisher’s clothed hardcover with dust jacket. Illustrated throughout with Krass Clement’s captivating black-and-white photos.

Photo book about Castro's Cuba — not the picturesque Havana in decorative decay, but a city in outright decline, yet inhabited by people who, amid all exposed and degrading poverty, are nonetheless trying to live their lives as dignified as possible with pride and joy.

Condition: outside like new, cloth in perfect condition, dustjacket complete, no creases, without tears, protected by a mylar sleeve, inside clean, no markings, no foxing, no creases.

A real collector's item, a rare, fine, and very attractive copy!
