Saint-Loup, a small French city, is the place where primitive photography was invented by Niépce in 1824. Daido Moriyama, who spoke of "the reality of Niépce's photography" in a dialogue with Takuma Nakahira in "Goodbye to Photography" (1972). Furthermore, in the postscript, "I live in 1990, and at the same time as an album of various lights and things that I see every day, I will send it to Saint Lou on that summer day. It is safe to say that it is a private letter.” The contrast of light and shadow that is unique to Moriyama is engraved in both the casual streetscapes and the objects projected for use as objects. Comes with an obi. Signed by the photographer .
