Light edgewear to spiral-bound illustrated wrappers; a better than very good copy lacking serious defects. First Edition. Spiral bound quarto sixty-four gravure plates. The best-known and most iconic of the great Paris photobooks printed in a deep gravure so tactile it seems almost as if charcoal will rub off on the hands of the viewer. The cobblestone covers and endpapers are particularly evocative. Parr / Badger v1 134; Roth 76-77. Paris: Edition Arts et Métiers Graphiques unknown

Although he disliked photography at the time he found it necessary to use it in his journalistic assignments and soon came to appreciate the medium's unique aesthetic qualities. In his remarkable oeuvre of photographs Brassai imbues even the most inanimate images with a warm sense of human life. The present early collection of drawings shows the artist honing his eye through keen observation of detail and nuance precisely the qualities which would inform the work for which he is today best remembered. <br style=""> hardcover books

Paris de nuit Paris by Night First Edition
Paris: Arts et M'tiers Graphiques 1933. First Edition. First Edition. 60 full-page black and white plates. Brassai's first and most notable photobook. <br/><br/>A nocturnal exploration of Parisian culture and one of the most celebrated and influential collections of urban photography ever published. Compiled in a somewhat eery sequence of encounters set around the darkest corners of 1930s Paris. Brassai does not shy away from capturing the less-than-savory aspects of inner city life often featuring sex workers seedy back alleys and the murky nighttime waters of the Seine. <br/><br/>Very Good plus in bright wrappers softcover. Spiral bound. Moderate creasing and rubbing overall. <br/><br/>Roth 101 p. 76-77. Parr and Badger Vol. 1 p. 134. Arts et M'tiers Graphiques unknown books

Brassai Text by Paul Morand
Paris de Nuit
Paris: Edition Arts et Metiers Graphiques 1933. First edition. Stiff Wraps. Original spiral binding front cover lettered in red. Very good. Unpaginated. Six leaves. 25 x 19 cm. 62 photogravure plates after Brassai. Printed by Draeger with exceptional photogravure plates this series of nocturnal Parisian views with its evocative text by Morand is something of an Art Deco classic. PHOTOBOOK I p. 134: “a ravishing book object in a purely physical sense. The printing represents arguably the most luscious gravure ever seen the blacks being so rich and deep that after handling the book one expects to find sooty deposits all over one’s fingers. The gradation of tones is wonderfully subtle describing an apparently infinite range of black and near-black tones. The layout with its characteristic full-page bleeds never more felicitously employed takes us from image to image from page to page and across night-time Paris with effortless panache. One should think of it as amongst the best produced and influential photobooks ever†HASSELBLAD. 110. PARR/BADGER. I 134. ROTH. 76. Slight crease front cover.

BRASSAI, & Paul Morand
Paris de Nuit.
Paris: Édition Arts et Métiers Graphiques 1933 1932. A superb copy inscribed by author and photographer First edition of the photographer's first publication double presentation copy inscribed by Morand on the first page of text "à Pierre Cot Voici un joli décor pour La Patriouille etc. Chut! chut! chut! tres fideliement P. Morand Paris fev. 32" and further inscribed by Brassaï across the following two pages "Pour Christian-Vincent Matorasso ce Paris de Nuit perdu et retrouvé avec toute ma sympathie Brassai Ete Village le 7 mai 1965". The first recipient Pierre Cot 1895-1977 was a politician central to the establishment of the French Air Force and later of Air France. Morand's inscription alludes to La Patriouille a display wing of the air force the French equivalent of the British Red Arrows. Pasted below Morand's inscription is a small photograph of Brassaï in later life which probably relates to the photographer's subsequent inscription. This is a superb copy of the work in which Brassaï showcases his mastery "at drawing luminosity from the darkness. The swaths of wet paving stones featured on the covers and endpapers of Paris de Nuit gleam like pale beacons in the streetlight. Inside Brassaï explores the city beginning with its broad vistas and grand public spaces and gradually moving into the demimonde he knew so intimately" Roth p. 76. It remains one of the most influential photobooks; signed copies are rare and copies inscribed by both author and photographer rarer still. Quarto. Illustrated with 62 full-page gravure plates and 2 double-page plates as endpapers. Spiral bound monochrome photographic wrappers front cover lettered in red. Housed in a custom black quarter morocco solander box by the Chelsea Bindery. A few punch holes slightly worn covers lightly creased and rubbed at extremities a few pages faintly soiled. A very good copy of a notoriously fragile book. Parr & Badger I p. 134; Roth p. 76. unknown

Brassai, and Paul Morand
Paris de Nuit; 60 photos inédites de Brassaï dans la Collection "Réalités" sous la direction de J. Bernier
Paris: Arts et Métiers Graphiques 1933. First Edition. Near fine. Spiral-bound Quarto 9 7/8 x 7 1/2 inches 248 x 191 mm 12 pp 62 photogravure plates after photographs by Brassaï each numbered in lower outer corner. Spiral bound stiff card covers without jacket as issued; housed in a custom clamshell case lined in red felt covered in red cloth with morocco spine gilt title. Two-notch chip at bottom of spiral extending into first leaf and one notch at top of spiral; pages lightly toned at the edges but photogravures in excellent condition. 8 pages of text in French by Paul Morand plus a 4 page index with detailed captions for each of the photographs. As beautifully stated in the first line of Paul Morand's introduction to this exceptional collection of photographs: Paris at night is not the negative of the day; the surfaces not not stop being white to become black: in reality they are not even the same images." The 62 photographs by Hungarian-born photographer Brassaï Gyula Halász capture nocturnal scenes throughout Paris - from glowing wet pavement and empty streets to bars cafés and the denizens of Paris at night. This was Brassaï's first published photo book and the work that established his reputation as a master of night photography showcasing his ability to extract light and atmosphere from darkness. A collector's treasure scarce in good condition this is one of the most influential photo books ever produced and is admired not just for its content but for the its productions values: the deep and velvety gravure printing and the evocative layout make it an object of intense tactile and visual appeal. The photogravures are in exceptional condition-richly inked with deep velvety blacks luminous highlights and a striking tonal range that preserves the full atmospheric subtlety of Brassaï's nocturnal vision. The plates retain remarkable clarity and contrast with a vividness and depth seldom found testifying to both the high production standards of Arts et Métiers Graphiques and the care with which this copy has been preserved.
