The SixtiesAvedon, Richard;Arbus, Doon

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Nadar was an astonishing presence in 19th-century France, reinventing himself as a bohemian writer, a journalist, a romantic utopian, a caricaturist, a portrait photographer, a balloonist, and a scientific innovator. However, it is for his photography that he is remembered, specifically his extraordinarily beautiful portraits of many of the great men and women of his time: including Dumas, Rossini, Baudelaire, Sarah Berndardt, Daumier, Berloiz, George Sand, and Delacroix. This book, which is the catalogue for an exhibition which opened at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1995, includes some 100 photographs from Nadar's finest period along with descriptions of their subjects.
