About This Item
From the front d.j. flap: "Jacques-Henri Lartigue was given his first camera in 1902 for his seventh birthday, and he went on to take hundreds and hundreds of pictures during his childhood. Lartigue had the gift of knowing exactly when to click the shutter of his camera to capture people and things in motion--a ball in the air, an uncle diving into the water, a glider clearing the edge of a dune and becoming...a bird! These remarkable photographs reveal Jacques-Henri Lartigue's playful exploration of the world around him and, as selected and presented by John Cech, offer young readers an introduction to this major twentieth-century artist."
