About This Item
New York: Congreve Publishing Co., Inc, 1979. First edition (stated). Near fine in a very good plus jacket.. Uncommon collection of Newton's iconic fashion photography from the 1970s. A totalizing vision of fetishistic glamour, represented here by a selection of images chosen by Newton himself. "Women of the 1970s are Helmut Newton women caught in the often precarious positions of thoroughly modern life," writes Brion Gyson on the jacket flaps, claiming for the photographer a social influence well beyond the domain of high fashion: "[Y]our wife may be imitating art." Younger admirers of Newton's work may be surprised to find that the average Woman of the 1970s so frequently found herself administering arty corporal punishment to other Modern Women in Helmut Newton's Paris apartment; but it was, as they say, a different time. 16'' x 11''. Original white wrappers. In original black and white printed dust jacket. A Xavier Moreau book, designed by Bea Feitler. Black and white plates. Mild rubbing and shelfwear to jacket, with small tear to top edge and a faint crease to rear panel. Else clean and sound.
