Description:
Tokyo: Bijutsu Shuppan-sha, 1969. First edition and firstq printing. Hardcover. 223 pages. Ishimoto's second major monograph. Features a foreword by Harry Callahan in English and Japanese. While the book was released in 1969, the images are all from the 1950s and early 1960s and capture an innocence and grace that would soon be a memory in the turbulent later years of the decade. The influence of Ishimoto's years at The Institute of Design is unmistakable but he has his own voice that is beautifully expressed in this striking collection of black and white images. A clean and tight very near fine copy in black cloth boards and in a near fine photographically illustrated slipcase that has some very minor wear Signed by Ishimoto on the title page and dated in 1982. A very pleasing copy of this classic. (Parr & Badger v1, 289).
