Beschreibung:

LARTIGUE, JACQUES-HENRI. 1894-1986.The Photographs of Jaccques-Henri Lartigue [Collector's Portfolio]. New York: Time-Life Books, 1978. Folio (450 x 332 mm). 16 pp booklet and 10 gelatin silver print photographs, each numbered "185/5000" in pencil in lower margin, each mounted to mat with gilt titles and blindstamp to overmat. Lacking portfolio, slight soiling to wrapper of text booklet, light foxing to mats. Together with an unused florentine paper mat board. Lartigue began taking photographs as a boy in France, and continued it as a lifelong pursuit, in spite of studying painting at the Academie Julian in Paris, and considering himself a painter, rather than photographer. His photographs capture playful and often kinetic images of everyday life, including racing cars, airplanes, and people at leisure.
