Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. 1st Edition. Retrospective collection of place and landscape photographs. One of the greatest art photography books of our time. The 2009 First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with the 2016 Reissued Edition, which was published seven years later. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only that sold out shortly after publication. The First Edition is now rare. A stupendous production by Christopher Thomas and Petra Michel Stuttgart: Oversize-volume format. Dark-brown cloth boards with dazzling photographic reproduction pasted on the recessed center and black titles embossed on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Christopher Thomas. Essays by Ulrich Pohlmann and Robert Shamis. The reproduction quality is outstanding in every respect. Printed on pristine-white, archival "acid-free" stock paper in Germany to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Presents, in its true First Edition format, Christopher Thomas' "New York Sleeps". A gently ironic play on the familiar trope of New York as "the city that never sleeps". Well, it does, radiantly and hauntingly so, in this German artist/photographer's beautiful images. "Paints a unique picture of the world's most vibrant city, from Central Park to Katz Delicatessen, the Flatiron Building to Battery Park. Imagine a New York devoid of people, its empty streets, bridges, and waterways as silent and magnificent as an Anselm Adams landscape. This is the New York that Christopher Thomas reveals in photographs that are at once haunting and nostalgic. Employing a large-format Polaroid camera, Thomas shot many of these images in the early hours of the day or with long exposures. Not only do Thomas' photographs allow viewers to appreciate the spatial and architectural splendor of New York City, they also evoke a dream-like feeling that is profound and unusual in depictions of the city: Timeless yet unmistakably contemporary" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Christopher Thomas collectors. This copy is magnificently signed in black ink-pen on the half-title page by Christopher Thomas. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great art photography book. This is the only such signed copy of the 2009 First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. It is the single most beautiful signed copy we have ever seen. Please note: Precedes and should NOT be confused with the 2016 Reprint Edition. Based in Munich, Christopher Thomas rarely does signings elsewhere. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with duotone plates. One of the greatest photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy. Signed by Author(s). …
