A collection of photographs by the great amateur photographer Jacques Henri Lartigue of France. Born in a wealthy family in 1894, he has been keeping a photo diary since childhood, shooting everyday and leisure scenes for his family and friends. Lartigue was just a hobby, but he was found as a new photographer in New York when he stopped by during his trip to the United States in 1962, and the following year he held an exhibition at MoMA. At that time, Lartigue was 69 years old. In 1966, at the invitation of Richard Avedon's assistant Hiro, he returned to New York and published "Family Album" with the cooperation of Avedon. With this photo book, the name of Lartigue became known worldwide. This book is a premium photo book of Lartigue published in 1966. The heavy binding and pages are all thick paper, and the specifications are like an album with the photos printed on it. It is a gorgeous design that imitates the photo diary made by Lartigue, and contains representative works of Lartigue (dynamic snaps such as cars and airplanes).
