Dustjacket. 132pp. Very light wear to corners and spine ends; internally clean signed by McCulling to the title page; in a clean strong example of the dustjacket with some very light cosmetic edgewear. A near fine signed copy.<br /> <br /> McCullin's relationship with India has been on of fasciantion ever since her toured the sub-continent with Eric Newby in the mid-1960's. This lavish travelogue which steps away from the shining marble of the Taj Mahal and instead takes in the burning ghats family outings refugee camps everyday life and the Indian people from the street people of Calcutta to market workers Brahmin and beggars is for McCullin a departure from war zones and military might but returns to his essential question of what happens to everyday people caught in the grinding mechanical orbit of great civilizations Jonathan Cape unknown

Large mounted albumen photograph of the Eastern Gateway of Blenheim Palace
Cambridge: Hills and Saunders 1855. Very good condition. A striking albumen print of the Eastern Gateway of the palace with a contemporary ink inscribed title 'Entrance to "Duke of Marlborough's" Residence' on the card below the image. The photographer's imprint 'Hills and Saunders Photographers to Her Majesty King's Parade Cambridge and at Oxford Eton Harrow & London' is printed below the handwritten title. <br /> <br /> The monumental eastern gate a triumphal arch leads to the kitchen court of the palace and is designed with Tuscan pilasters resting on cannon balls. Grinling Gibbons the famous wood carver created the stone urns in 1708. There are 2 statues in niches also thought to be made in Grinling's studio. In 1773 lion heads wreaths and laurels were added by the architect Sir William Chambers. <br /> <br /> The ornate wrought iron gates were made in the late 1840s by Messrs. Bramah the firm founded by the famous locksmith Joseph Bramah. They were exhibited at the Great Exhibition in 1851.<br /> <br /> We are unable to confirm the date of the image but we feel that it would be soon after the installation of the wrought iron gates in the early 1850s. Supporting this early date is the large top hat worn by the man visible in the photograph<br /> <br /> At the top of the arch is a blank rectangular plaque. This image is prior to the inscription being engraved on the plaque which was not completed until the end of the 19th century.<br /> <br /> The albumen print 6 x 7 1/2" laid down on heavier stock 10 1/4 x 15 Hills and Saunders unknown

This is their memory album of a visit to Luxor in southern Egypt the place of the Valley of the Kings. The photographs some of which are titled are chiefly titled in French. Even though 23 of the photographs are signed it is clear that the whole album is made up of images from these two photographers meaning that 47 of the images should be either by the Zangaki Brothers or Antoine Beoto's studio.

[Photography] Garcia, Erin C
Man Ray in Paris.
<p>Photography Garcia Erin C. Man Ray in Paris. Los Angeles: Getty Publications 2011. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine dust jacket. The American Modernist Man Ray 1890–1976 spent the 1920s and 1930s in Paris where experimental expression was flourishing. While he considered himself to be primarily a painter and also worked in film sculpture and collage his best-known and most innovative medium was photography. He eventually became an influential figure in the city's avant-garde circles and began to make striking portraits of many of its luminaries including Pablo Picasso James Joyce Jean Cocteau Joan Miró and Gertrude Stein. His work inspired other photographers and encouraged painters including the Surrealists René Magritte and Salvador Dalí to experiment with the medium. Through its fascinating text and numerous photographs this volume vividly demonstrates why Man Ray is still considered to be one of the most inventive and exciting artists of the twentieth century. </p> Getty Publications, hardcover

[Photography] Ray, Man
Man Ray: Photography and It's Double.
Corte Madera:: Gingko Press 1998. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine dust jacket. Man Ray 1890-1976 was one of the co-founders of New York Dada. When he arrived in Paris in the 1920s he was already friends with Duchamp and many Parisian Surrealists who welcomed him with great enthusiasm. He is unquestionably recognized as the most original photographer of our century.With his photographs Rayographs solarizations and various experimentation with Surrealist doctrines in the darkroom his photographic contribution to art and especially surrealism is matchless. Thanks to his famous portraits of contemporaries - artists writers and celebrities - he also became the most notable chronicler of the inter-national Avant-garde movement of the 1920s and 1930s. This monograph published to coincide with the historic exhibition at the Centre Pompidou is entirely dedicated to Man Ray's photographic oeuvre. The Centre Pompidou is the recipient of the Man Ray archives - some 13000 negatives and 5000 prints - which reveal for the very first time never before published photographs a great amount consisting of erotic compositions. One-third of these photographs have never been seen. Not only the finished photos but also the process - crops background manipulation and other methods. The book with its new images presents for the very first time a true picture of the artist and a vital addition to the many publications about Man Ray that appeared throughout this century many of which are long out of print. This monograph is a must for Man Ray experts for those interested in photography and a wonderful introduction to students and others not yet sufficiently familiar with Man Ray's work.

[Photography - Ohio]
MOTORIZED PRODUCE WAGON IN CINCINNATI OHIO
An original photograph circa 1915 of the motorized delivery wagon for John Holderfield & Sons a wholesale fruit and vegetable merchant. Hand-painted signage on the wagon shows that Holderfield operated two locations: 226 E. Pearl Street and 132 Sycamore Street in Cincinnati Ohio. According to a newspaper report John W. Holderfield 1866-1923 of Cincinnati founded the business but when his sons entered military service during World War I he consolidated his firm with R.A. Miller & Company.<br/> <br/> The black and white image shows a man driving a motorized delivery truck that is loaded to bear with barrels. A logo is evident confirming that the truck is a Pierce. The first Pierce-Arrow truck was produced in January 1911. Pierce-Arrow's final attempt at the commercial market was in 1935 when they made 9- and 15-passenger sightseeing buses. The first motorized commercial truck was produced by Gottlieb Daimler in Germany in 1896. However it took more than a decade for businesses to transition from horse-drawn wagons and make the investment in motorized vehicles.<br/> <br/> The 13 ½" x 10" black and white photograph is printed on glossy stock and is linen backed with a short caption affixed to the verso which requests to return to Mrs. Janet Ball of Canoga Park California alongside "John William Holderfield" and the date 1915. Additionally the address "3857 Eastern Ave." is written in pencil on the verso. unknown

[PHOTOGRAPHY - ALHAMBRA - ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE]. LAURENT, Jean (photographer).
Photograph album containing pictures of the Alhambra and its Islamic architectural treasures.
Madrid 1870. Contemporary gold- and blind-stamped green leather with the intials "M.L.B." blind-stamped on the front board gold-tooled turn-ins green watered silk endpapers gilt edges. Oblong folio 62 x 46.5 cm. With 72 large size albumen photographic prints with architectural views including numerous views of Spanish and Western Islamic architectural treasures ca. 33.5 x 24.5 cm 3 large composite photographic panoramas the Alhambra and Granada Cordoba and San Sebastian and 5 photographs of people 3 handcoloured photographs of Spanish costumes and 2 portraits of a woman. 58 of the 72 photographs contain the name of photographer title and number of the image in the negative. An exceptional album with fine views of Sevilla Granada Cordoba San Sebastian and many more. The photographer Jean Laurent was born in France but opened a photo studio in Madrid in 1856. In 1858 the Spanish government commissioned him to photograph the construction of the railroad line from Madrid to Alicante. The results were published and exhibited in many places which brought him considerable success. From 1861-68 Laurent held the title of "Fotógrafo de S. M. la Reina" and produced photos of members of the Spanish royal family. His photo studio in Madrid became one of the best-known from his time which allowed him to open gallery in Paris where he exhibited and sold premium-quality prints from his work in Spain. Although he was interested in industrialisation and intended to convey the image of a modern and economically flourishing country his photographs of the more picturesque aspects of Spain became more popular. The present album contains 34 views of Western Islamic architectural structures and a large 4-part folding panorama of the Alhambra and Granada. Furthermore it contains two examples of photographs on leptographic paper a collodio-chloride printing paper which was sold ready to use. Its manufacture was perfected by Laurent in collaboration with Martínez-Sánchez in 1866.With some slight signs of wear around the spine and the corners of the boards the panorama views are mounted on grey cloth which is somewhat foxed not affecting the actual photograph the album leaves are very slightly browned. Overall in very good condition.l Hannavy Encyclopedia of Nineteenth-Century Photography II 829/830. hardcover
