AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
VERY BEAUTIFUL, VERY CHARMING, VERY SCARCE SMALL BOOK from the 50ties -
with 19 (!) great photos by famous French photographer Robert Doisneau ("La banlieue de Paris", 1949)
in PHOTOGRAVURE PRINTING.
WIDELY UNKNOWN AND UNDERRATED BOOK - about the fun of fishing.
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.
Les Editions Braun and Cie, Mulhouse, Paris, Lyon. 1949. First edition, first printing.
Photo-illustrated hardcover (as issued). 130 x 170 mm. 124 pages. 32 black and white photos. Photos by: Robert Doisneau (19), George Besson (9), Blanc et Demilly (3), Papillon (1), Raymond Dallaz (1). Edited by Marius Mermillon. Text in French.
Condition:
Inside super fresh and super clean with no marks and with no foxing. Outside quite fresh, much fresher than usual; little trace of use. Neat bump at the top of the spine and of the first half of the pages (marginal, not dramatic). Overall fine, better than usual condition (often stronger rubbed).
Great photo publication with 32 beautiful black and white photos in photogravure -
most of them by Robert Doisneau.
Like always 5Uhr30.com guarantees detailed and accurate descriptions, 100% transport protection, 100% transport insurance, and of course, combined shipping - worldwide.
Robert Doisneau is the maker of many great photobooks, for example of "La banlieue de Paris":
- Martin Parr, The Photobook, vol 1, page 187/201
- Andrew Roth , Book of 101 Books, page 132
- 802 photo books from the M. + M. Auer collection, page 336
"Robert Doisneau (1912-1994) was a French photographer. From the 1930s, he photographed the streets of Paris. He was a champion of humanist photography and, with Henri Cartier-Bresson, a pioneer of photojournalism.
Doisneau is known for his 1950 image Le baiser de l'hôtel de ville (The Kiss by the City Hall), a photograph of a couple kissing on a busy Parisian street.
He was appointed a Chevalier (Knight) of the Legion of Honour in 1984 by then French president, François Mitterrand.
Doisneau is remembered for his modest, playful, and ironic images of amusing juxtapositions, mingling social classes, and eccentrics in contemporary Paris streets and cafes. Influenced by the work of André Kertész, Eugène Atget, and Henri Cartier-Bresson, in more than twenty books of photography, he presented a charming vision of human frailty and life as a series of quiet, incongruous moments.
Doisneau's work gives unusual prominence and dignity to children's street culture; returning again and again to the theme of children at play in the city, unfettered by parents. His work treats their play with seriousness and respect."
