Paris: Arts et M'tiers Graphiques, 1933. First Edition. First Edition. 60 full-page, black and white plates. Brassai's first and most notable photobook.

A nocturnal exploration of Parisian culture, and one of the most celebrated and influential collections of urban photography ever published. Compiled in a somewhat eery sequence of encounters set around the darkest corners of 1930s Paris. Brassai does not shy away from capturing the less-than-savory aspects of inner city life, often featuring sex workers, seedy back alleys, and the murky, nighttime waters of the Seine.

Very Good plus in bright wrappers (softcover). Spiral bound. Moderate creasing and rubbing overall.

Roth 101, p. 76-77. Parr and Badger Vol. 1, p. 134.

Description:
Paris: Arts et Metiers Graphiques, 1933. 12 pp of text and captions, 62 pp. of full-page black and white photographs. Spiral bound, stiff wraps. Text is in French. Covers and endpapers are additional photographs. Spiral binding is complete and secure, unusual for such a fragile publication. Extremities are worn, covers are scuffed and creased.

In it he captures both the luminosity and the eeriness of all corners of the city and lifestyles of Paris at night in the early 1930s. Scarce.. First Edition. Softcover. Good/No Jacket. Illus. by Brassai. Small Quarto.

Description:
Paris, Arts et métiers graphiques, [1933]. . Erste Ausgabe (des ersten Fotobuchs Brassais). - Brassaď (d.i. Gyula Halász, 1899-1984), französischer Fotograf ungarischer Herkunft, kam nach Studien in Ungarn und Deutschland 1924 nach Paris. Sein Freund, der ungar. Fotograf André Kertész überredete ihn, die Faszination des Pariser Nachtlebens in Fotos einzufangen. 1933 erschien sein Bildband "Paris de Nuit", der ihn sofort berühmt machte: "Brassai, der Pariser aus Transsylvanien, erscheint als Engel der Dunkelheit. Seine Sensibilität genießt das Ursprüngliche, das Fantastische, das Zweideutige und sogar das Bizarre" (John Szarkowski, Museum of Modern Art, New York). - Deckelkanten gering berieben
