Along with Ihei Kimura, Ken Domon's work collection "Hiroshima (First Edition)" is one of the leading Japanese photographers of the 20th century. Ken Domon is one of the leading journalists in pursuit of realism, and has also demonstrated his talent for portraying traditional Japanese culture such as temples and Buddhist statues, and has produced numerous masterpieces. In addition, in the camera magazine, which was indispensable for the promotion of Japanese news and fine-art photography, a professional amateur photographer applied for his own work and honed his skills. He is a photographer who has worked and has been instrumental in teaching younger generations. Set in Hiroshima after the atomic bombing, this book is a masterpiece of a journalism photo book that portrays the reality of the bombed city and people from the front. The design using red paraffin reminiscent of Pikadon and the cover of Shigejiro Sano are also wonderful, and it can be said to be the culmination of postwar Japanese documentaries built one era before the news photo by Shomei Tomatsu and others. (Recorded in The Japanese Photobook 1912–1990)
