New York: Damiani, 2005. First edition, first printing. Hardcover in color-printed, stiff-card pictorial boards, issued without dust jacket. Very Fine, a pristine, unread copy. Quarto (8 x 11 in.), 152 pages, illustrated throughout in color and black-and-white. "Mario de Biasi: People" presents a vibrant collection of photographs by one of Italy’s most accomplished photojournalists, whose long collaboration with Epoca magazine helped define modern Italian reportage. Peripatetic, prolific, and perceptive, de Biasi captured the human condition across continents, from intimate portraits to sweeping street scenes. Alongside contemporaries like Boubat, Cartier-Bresson, Gardin, and Riboud, he transformed everyday life into visual poetry. This volume, part of the "Unpublished Photographs" series, stands as both a tribute and introduction to his enduring legacy. [Case-art].
