Elliott Erwitt - On The Beach - 1991

Elliott Erwitt "On the Beach" - 1991 - Noted "First Edition" - English - 26cm x 22,5cm - Hardback with dustjacket Very good condition, inside is bright and clear, the cover and dustjacket show normal singns of wear, but no tears (see also the attached photos) Elliott Erwitt focuses his camera on the beach--the bodies, the vanities, the formality and informality in every popular beach spot the world over. The photographs were made over a forty year period and show not only the changes in Erwitt's vision, but also the changes in our attitudes about the beach. With commentary by Elliott Erwitt himself. His text is a wonderful analysis of the beach and his work. Published in 1991 it covers beach photos from the US, the UK, Europe, Brazil and elsewhere from the fifties onwards, and it does have a slightly retrospective style; you could think it was published in the late seventies. Elliott Erwitt (born Elio Romano Erwitz) is an advertising and journalistic photographer known for his black and white candid shots of ironic and absurd situations within everyday settings -- the master of the "indecisive moment". The book will be safely packed and shipped with Track&Trace
