AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
THIS IS THE LAST EXCLUSIVE PHOTOBOOK AUCTION by 5Uhr30.com in 2025 -
with more than 100 great lots from my personal collection and from recent acquisitions.
FANTASTIC EARLY WORK by genious Hungarian photographer André Kertész (1894-1985) with "Birds" as overarching theme.
With his very personal images André Kertész skillfully succeeded in capturing the fleeting, emotional moments in his environment. His works had a pronounced influence on artistic photography in the mid-twentieth century and on artists such as Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, and Brassaï. Three important periods mark his oeuvre: Budapest (1914-25), Paris (1925-36), and New York (1936-85).
Like always 5Uhr30.com guarantees detailed and accurate descriptions, 100% transport protection, 100% transport insurance, and of course, combined shipping - worldwide.
Mayflower Books, New York. 1979. First edition, first printing.
Paperback (as issued). 153 x 228 mm. 64 pages. 64 photos in black and white. Photos: André Kertész. Text in English.
Condition:
Inside fresh and clean with no marks and with no foxing. Outside a bit yellowed (like often); neat bump at the bottom right corner of the front cover (and of the pages). Overall very good condition.
Smart, widely unknown small book by André Kertész.
A must-have for every fan of the genius photographer.
