About the Author
One of the most important and influential photographers of the twentieth century, Brassaï (1899-1984) moved to Paris from Hungary in 1924. He is best known for artfully chronicling the city in the 1930s and for his classic portraits of such artists as Picasso, Matisse, and the Surrealists.
Book Description
Roaming Paris streets by night in the early 1930s, Brassaï created arresting images of the city's dramatic nocturnal landscape. The back alleys, metro stations, and bistros he photographed are at turns hauntingly empty or peopled by prostitutes, laborers, thugs, and lovers. Paris by Night, first published in French in 1932, collected sixty of these images, which have since become photographic icons. This new edition brings one of Brassaï's finest works back into print. Beautifully presented, Paris by Night is a stunning portrait of nighttime in the City of Light, as captured by its most articulate observer. |
