Some of the photographer's finest and most representative images, in one handsome volume. A peripatetic photographer, Willem Diepraam began his career as a journalist for the Dutch newsweekly, Vrij Nederland. He has also been an avid collector of photographs, publicist, curator of exhibitions, and organizer of exhibitions of his own work. The latter demonstrates a deep and genuine empathy for the plight of the world's underpriveleged as well as an impeccable eye for form and composition. A committed moralist and aesthete at the same time, Willem Diepraam has long been an established name in European journalism and art photography circles, but remains virtually unknown in the United States. Knowledge of his brilliant work is long overdue here, and this book is probably the best introduction there is. An absolute "must-have" title for Willem Diepraam collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Edition of 2500 copies. It is very boldly and beautifully signed, placed, and dated in black pen-marker on the half-title page by the photographer: "Willem Diepraam Chicago Jan. 19, 2002". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. Diepraam added a serpentine, tail-like underline to his signature, which extends all the way to the lower portion of the page. This title is a contemporary photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed, placed, and dated copy of the Limited Edition available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. 150 duotone and color plates. One of the most brilliant photographers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER WILLEM DIEPRAAM TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 9072216857.
