在前两场拍卖取得巨大成功之后，5Uhr30.com（Ecki Heuser，科隆）现在自豪地推出今年第三场也是最后一场的“Masters of Erotic Photobooks”。

再次为您带来一批高度个人化的书籍精选，专注于色情的美丽多面性——来自我的私人藏书以及过去几年多次购入所得。

WONDERFUL PHOTOBOOK WITH ALL THE FAMOUS NUDE PHOTOS by legendary Edward Weston -
in BRANDNEW CONDITION.

Edward Weston 曾被称为“最具创新性与影响力的美国摄影师之一”和“20世纪摄影大师之一”。

"在 Weston 摄影机揭示的自然界中众多被忽视的艺术品里，最常挑战这位伟大摄影师终身的，正是人体形态。对爱人、朋友以及他的儿子 Neil 的裸体照片，色欲、雕塑与诗意并存，将身体激情的本质与超越瞬間、追寻永恒形态的渴望结合起来。
在追求理想的过程中，Weston 将焦点放在被摄对象的基本物理特征上，使他的印刷品散发天生的优雅与高贵。他渴望拉近距离，又保持一种遥远、不可知的雕塑感；这是一种普遍节律的映照，揭示了事物的“活力本质”。

"Edward Henry Weston was a 20th-century American photographer. Over the course of his 40-year career Weston photographed an increasingly expansive set of subjects, including landscapes, still lifes, nudes, portraits, genre scenes and even whimsical parodies. It is said that he developed a "quintessentially American, and especially Californian, approach to modern photography" because of his focus on the people and places of the American West. In 1937 Weston was the first photographer to receive a Guggenheim Fellowship, and over the next two years he produced nearly 1,400 negatives using his 8 × 10 view camera. Some of his most famous photographs were taken of the trees and rocks at Point Lobos, California, near where he lived for many years.
Weston was born in Chicago and moved to California when he was 21. He knew he wanted to be a photographer from an early age, and initially his work was typical of the soft focus pictorialism that was popular at the time. Within a few years, however he abandoned that style and went on to be one of the foremost champions of highly detailed photographic images.
In 1947 he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and he soon stopped photographing. He spent the remaining ten years of his life overseeing the printing of more than 1,000 of his most famous images."
