The record of a major artist whose portraits have made being 'Karshed' a singular accomplishment. It is also something new. It is the first book on Karsh to include a large group of photographs of arresting people not in the public eye, of workers in their environments, and of his early works and experiments. It is the first book to represent his work in color, with surprising masterworks... The photographer contributes a substantial autobiographical section with personal photographs. Through his introduction and his revealing comments on the portraits, we understand Karsh's intense interest in and great rapport with his subjects." - from dust jacket. Clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Front endpaper removed. A quality copy of this truly wonderful compilation..
