While he is also famous for his later studies of ancient temples, his "Children" series remains his most emotionally resonant and socially significant contribution to the medium. This Nikon Salon edition is a highly collectible retrospective of his street-level documentary mastery. - Size: 30 x 21 x 1.5 cm - Weight: 600 grams The item will be shipped via Japan Post or international courier with tracking.
