Description from the seller

Published by Heibonsha in 1958, “NU / Rafu (Nude Woman)” is a Japanese photobook compiling the work of French photographer Émile Savitry.

It contains a series of monochrome nude works imbued with a tranquil and intimate atmosphere, characterised by meticulously composed poses, soft indoor lighting, and a restrained visual tone that accentuates form and texture.

As part of a post-war Japanese series introducing international photographers, it presents both the works themselves and the publishing context of the time, making it an appealing combination for collectors of classical photography and Japanese photobook history.
