In America and the UK, the British photographers works have been the subject of some controversy since the artist often depicts teenage girls in the nude. Because of differing attitudes regarding age and nudity, Hamilton has not received this negative attention in his adopted home of France, nor in other countries. Corners of box slightly bumped, minor staining on boards. Closed surface tear on lower edge of clamshell box compartment, firmly holding. Captions and all other text in French. Clamshell box in overall very good, plates in near fine condition. Complete signed portfolio. Please notify before visiting to see a book. Prices are excl. VAT/TVA (only Switzerland) & postage.
