A collection of works by Nobuyoshi Araki, one of Japan's leading photographers after the war, "Photo Novel With Booklet". Not only so-called "records" such as "realism," "journalism," and "documentary," but also Japanese photographs from the 1960s after the war, when new expressions such as "visual photographs" and "compola photographs" were born. It was just the beginning of photography by private lines, and the one with a particularly strong claim was also called "private photography". In other words, something that "photographs me" through the object. The central figures were Masahisa Fukase and Nobuyoshi Araki. Since the 90's, the expression "private diary" has been used frequently, and several collections of works with the same title have been published, but this is Araki's "photo novel" published in 1999. It says, "Dedicated to Junichiro Tanizaki and Sophie Karoo." Araki's photographic novels are lined up over about 450 pages without text. Booklet included.
