Fotolitografia monocromatica su carta fotografica pesante, stampata in alta qualità di stampa nel 2001. La presenza di un bordo bianco è stato pensato per favorirne l'incorniciatura con utilizzo di passepartout. 

Born in 1903 into a prosperous mercantile family in Hamburg, Germany, Herbert List’s work combined a love of photography with a fascination for surrealism and classicism. He began an apprenticeship at a Heidelberg coffee dealer in 1921 while studying literature and art history at Heidelberg University. While traveling for the coffee business between 1924–28, the young List began to take photographs, almost without any pretensions to art. List developed his style and technical abilities by capturing still lifes and portraits. In 1930, he was introduced to the Rolleiflex camera, which allowed him to make deliberate compositions. Though List was completely self-taught, his friendship with Andreas Feininger brought him to the next level. After purchasing the very expensive Rolleiflex, List had Feininger visit from the Bauhaus School to teach him how to use it.
Leaving Germany in 1936 as the Nazis rose to power, List briefly pursued photography as a profession in London and Paris, where he was referred to Harper’s Bazaar. Dissatisfied with the challenges of fashion photography, List instead focused on studio compositions, many reminiscent of paintings by Max Ernst and Giorgio de Chirico. List always referred to himself as an amateur photographer. He pursued the art not to take on editorial assignments but out of a passion for the medium.
From 1937 to 1939, List’s primary interest was Greece and its ancient temples, sculptures, and landscapes. This fascination led to his first solo show in Paris. Publications in Life, Photographie, Verve and Harper’s Bazaar followed. His first book, Licht Ueber Hellas, was published in 1953. Despite his attempts to evade the war in Athens, List was forced to return to Germany in 1941. Because of his Jewish background, he was forbidden to publish or officially work in Germany, and several of his works stored in Paris have been lost. Before the war ended in 1945, he made portraits of notable figures in Paris and Vienna. Post-war, he photographed the ruins of Munich and became art editor of Heute, an American magazine for the German public.
In 1951, List met Robert Capa, who convinced him to work as a contributor to Magnum. From 1950 to 1961, hi focused on Italy. Early on in this period, he discovered the 35mm camera and telephoto lens. Influenced by his Magnum colleague Henri Cartier-Bresson and the Italian Neorealism film movement, his work became more spontaneous. In the following years, he completed several books, including Rom, Caribia, Nigeria and Napoli.
