In a worn dust jacket, with large losses from the edges, and several tape repairs to the reverse. "While Morgan is best known for the vibrancy of her dance photographs, equally characteristic of her diverse work is her ability to capture ephemeral gesture. In the mid-1930s, her choice of abstract photographic styles set her apart from the preponderance of American documentary photographers. Along with Ansel Adams, Beaumont Newhall, Dorothea Lange, and five others, Morgan will be remembered as a co-founder of Aperture magazine in 1951, one of the few publications at the time to nurture a dialogue among photographers and treat photography as a fine art." - International Center of Photography Inscribed by Morgan, in the year of publication, on the half title: "For____ / best wishes / Barbara Morgan / 11-29-72.".
