Title: A Vision of Paris: The Photographs of Eugene Atget, the Words of Marcel Proust
Description: New York, Macmillan Company, 1980. Reissue. Cloth. 211 pp. Illus. with sepia photos. 4to. Words by Marcel Proust. First published in 1963 and here reissued, these wonderful evocative photographs are from the collection of Berenice Abbott who wrote of Atget: "He will be remembered as an urban historian, a genuine romanticist, a lover of Paris, a Balzac of the camera, from whose work we can weave a large tapestry of French civilization. Yet perhaps his most haunting photographs show simply a plow in a field near the city, a crop of wheat, or one of the trees he loved so well. A very good+ copy with foxing to edges and a remainder dot, in a very good dust jacket.
