Image and Enterprise: The Photography of Adolphe Braun

NY, Thames & Hudson. 2000, 1st. (ISBN: 0500542325). Hard, Folio. First edition. Hard cover in dust jacket. Published NY: Thames & Hudson, 2000, first printing. Folio, 9 1/2" x 12 1/4", 160pp. 123 illustrations. Blind embossed black cloth with silver spine titles. "Ever since their creation in nineteenth-century France, Adolphe Braun's photographic images have been uniformly praised for their beauty. Braun was a trained textile designer who initially used the nascent technology of photography to document the French landscape and architecture, traditional regional costume, animal breeds and husbandry, and the events and legacies of the Franco-Prussian war. Braun's opulent bouquets of flowers are at once lush, delicate, and richly tonal; his landscapes are breathtaking and immediate; his animal studies arresting; his war photos dramatic and unrelenting. He created thousands of visual souvenirs of pristine alpine sites and would ultimately become one of the first to reproduce works of art photographically for a mass audience."
