Signed; Sebastião Salgado (1944-2025) - Workers - 2012

For sale a signed copy of the book Workers, by Sebastião Salgado (1944-2025). This book contains high quality paper and print with artworks from the Workers series as well as descriptions of the scenes visible in the photographs. About the Artist: Sebastião Salgado (b. 1944) is one of the world’s most celebrated social documentary photographers. Trained as an economist, Salgado is renowned for his epic black-and-white long-term projects that capture human resilience, social issues, and the natural world with dramatic light, high contrast, and deep empathy. About the Workers series: An Archaeology of the Industrial Age Shot between 1986 and 1992 across 26 countries, Workers is Salgado’s monumental visual homage to manual labor. Conceived as an "archaeology of the industrial era," the landmark project documents a vanishing way of life centered on human muscle and sweat, from Brazilian gold miners to Indian coal workers, offering an unprecedented tribute to the global working class just before the dawn of widespread automation. Beautiful hardcover book, approximately 21x23 cm, 123 pages. Languages: English and Czech in one. Quick and safe shipping guaranteed. DHL or DPD with insurance and tracking inside of EU.
