Werner Bischof was one of the most outstanding photographers of the post Second World War period, whose work set new standards in photojournalism. This is the first complete study of his life and works. Documented by more than 140 full-page reproductions of Bischof's most important photographs, it is a comprehensive biography of unprecedented insight and eloquence, and includes illuminating extracts from his diaries, letters and manuscripts. 255 pages; over 140 full-page, b&w plates; 9.75 x 12 inches.

New York : Thames & Hudson, 1990. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 255 pages, clean hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. B&w photographs throughout by Bischof. His images were influenced by the major photo-movements of his time: the formal concepts of Das Neues Sehen (New Vision), the surrealism of Man Ray, and the documentary tradition of photojournalism. From the 1940s through the early 1950s, he covered World War II, the bombing of Hiroshima, and the Korean War for Life , Paris-Match , and other publications; his most famous series, "Famine in India," appeared in Life in 1951. This first major compilation of Bischof's work is nicely complemented by the text, a joint effort by son Marco and Swiss art historian Magnaguagno that vividly integrates biography and history.
