First Edition
Condition: Fine in a near fine jacket. First edition of this selection of images from a photo archive procured by Piller, consisting of about 20,000 aerial photographs of homes taken between 1979 and 1983 by a company whose intention was to sell the images to the homeowners. Piller's selections are divided into 23 categories, each focused on various details: pools, cars being washed, birds in the frame, laundry hung out to dry, graveyards near the homes, lawns being mowed (one homeowner looks puzzledly up at the plane), etc. A profound and fascinating series with uncommon perspectives on the prosaic, suburban context. 11'' x 11''. Original tan cloth with stamped lettering in glossy photographic dust jacket. Text in German; from an edition of 800 copies. Unpaginated. Very mild, small dent to bottom edge of pages, and light crinkling to two corners of jacket; else a beautiful copy.

First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Fine condition. First edition. Laid in original aerial color photograph signed by Peter Piller, numbered N 27, dated 2004. (10 x 10") "Von Erde schöner" was published in an edition of 800 copies with numbers 1-30 containing a signed original photograph. Large Quarto Square (11 1/4 x 11 1/4"). Original tan cloth with black lettering on cover and spine, in original photo-illustrated dustjacket in color, black lettering on spine; housed in original gray cardboard box with black lettering on white label of cover. The publication was sponsored by the Albert-Renger-Patzsch-Preis of the Dietrich-Oppenberg-Stiftung, Essen. "Approximately 20,00 aerial photographs of single residences were part of a company estate I took over in 2002. Between 1979 and 1983 countless settlements were flown over at low altitude to take aerial photographs of single residences to sell to potential buyers. Their versos contained insightful notes, e.g.: "No interest in photographs," "Von Erde schöner", "Wife wants, but house too expensive," "I can get half a motorbike for that," "Doing it myself," or simply "Deceased." Various sightings of the archive lead to areas to collect and inventory categories, like "sleeping houses," floral bodies," and "human in front of house." A fourth, fifth and sixth view of 18 moving crates full of lightly yellowed photographs and negatives finally revealed, what this book now reveals." (Peter Piller). Text in German. Cardboard box with light wear along edges, else in Fine condition.
