Description from the seller

Gilles Peress – The Silence (Scalo, 1995) – First Edition

One of the most important and influential photobooks by Magnum photographer Gilles Peress.

Published by Scalo in 1995, this powerful work documents the aftermath of the 1994 Rwandan genocide through an uncompromising sequence of black-and-white photographs. Rather than offering a conventional documentary narrative, Peress creates an immersive visual testimony that confronts the viewer with the scale of human tragedy and the silence of the international community. The book is widely regarded as a landmark in contemporary documentary photography and an essential title in the history of the photobook.


Seller's Story

Books are my great passion, which I have been collecting privately for decades with great love. I keep a vast assortment of thousands of volumes on photography, avant-garde, erotica, fashion and counterculture.
