Photography at its most sublime, beyond speech and discourse: The Theater of Life according to the great Magnum photographer. "For years now, Koudelka has been working with a panoramic camera, putting out stunning images that find their way into books of limited availability. Contains twenty-five images, gorgeously printed, of work made in Rome over the past three years" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Josef Koudelka collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed and dated (shortly after publication) in black ink-pen on the title page by the photographer: "Josef Koudelka 13/11/03". It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great art photography book.

Please note: None of the copies was commercially sold in the United States. This copy was buried in storage by a dedicated French collector for more than fifteen years (as of 2019), and has no discernible flaws. A rare signed copy thus. 25 doublespread plates. Three of Josef Koudelka's books were selected as among the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". The greatest Czech photographer of our time. A fine collectible copy.

As New in As New dust jacket (opened only for signature). From the publisher: "Stark, impassioned, and singularly intense, the work of the itinerant and fiercely independent Czech photographer Josef Koudelka has received deserved acclaim over the past three decades for having made a uniquely significant contribution to the language of photography. This major new monograph presents the most comprehensive survey of Koudelka's work to date, bringing together more than 150 of his most eloquent images -- from his earliest, many published here for the first time, to his most recent: mesmerizing studies of the European landscape made with a panoramic camera. Whether photographing Prague's avant-garde theater scene in the 1960s, the secretive world of the Eastern European gypsies, Czech resistance to the Soviet advance on Prague, or the environmental degradation of our postindustrial world, Koudelka has consistently produced transformative images that stand outside of time and place. In the words of the legendary French photography-world figure and Koudelka's longtime champion and publisher, Robert Delpire, 'Koudelka brings an intense eye and full heart to each place, object, and person. This work proves once again that he is a photographer with unique personality and power.' Beautifully produced with duotone printing and three gatefolds, this volume also contains eight original essays, each exploring a different aspect of Koudelka's work and illustrating the artist's constant evolution and intensity."
