Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Kimura Ihē (1901-1974) was one of Japan's leading photographers and was greatly influenced by French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson. This album by Ihē collects monochrome offset-printed photographic images of the people and landscapes of Manchuria as a Japanese colony… and was taken as part of a national policy. Although it was created as a piece of propaganda, the book's composition, based on snapshots, Ihē's specialty, and its design by Hara Hiromu make it an artistic masterpiece. Original boards and dust jacket. Minor damage to spine and folds of dust jacket. Otherwise near fine. Housed in original card box, slightly stained. 1 v., complete. 53 leaves. 25.8 x 18.2 cm. Text in Japanese.
