One of the most beautiful books on the photographic art and achievement of Andre Kertesz. Limited Edition of 1000 numbered and signed copies. The first and only edition. There is no ISBN. The Limited Edition is now rare. An austerely elegant production by Galerie Wilde: Regular-sized volume format. Cream cloth boards with brown titles embossed on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Andre Kertesz. Introduction by Brassai. Printed on cream, uncoated stock paper in Cologne, Germany to the highest standards. The reproduction quality is exemplary in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents, in a Limited Edition, "Andre Kertesz: The Galerie Wilde Collection". Some of the photographer's finest and most representative images in a formally elegant and exquisite format. Each of the photographs is presented on the right-hand page only. As such, they were often detached and framed on their own. The homage by Brassai is moving: "His combination of Modernist vision and poetic wit defined a vocabulary that multiple generations of photographers now use" (Brassai). "His photographs reveal a whole world at once expected and unexpected to anyone who examines them" (Carol Kismaric). An absolute "must-have" title for Andre Kertesz collectors. This is a copy of the Limited Edition of 1000 numbered and signed copies, indicated/numbered as such in pencil on the Back Limitation Page. It is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen by Andre Kertesz. This title is an art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only copy of the Limited Edition available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies very occasionally turn up online that are, however, NOT signed because Andre Kertesz did not finish signing the entire print run. A rare signed copy thus. 23 plates. Andre Kertesz's "Day of Paris" was selected as one of the greatest photography books in "The Photobook". One of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. A fine collectible copy.
