A collection of photographs by the great amateur photographer Jacques Henri Lartigue of France. Although his main business is a painter, Lartigue has been keeping a photo diary since he was a child, shooting the daily life and leisure scenes of his wealthy family and friends as a hobby. Especially active and dynamic snapshots such as play and sports are famous. Lartigue's first solo exhibition at MoMA in New York was held in 1963, before he was 60 years old, edited by Richard Avedon and published worldwide in the 1970 Diary of a Century. It was in the limelight. His free and smiling work has been highly evaluated, and many photo books have been published since then. At the end of the plate, there is a portrait of Lartigue by photographer Hiro (Hiro Wakabayashi) who studied under Avedon. The editorial by Avedon, inherited from Alexey Brodovitch, is also a highlight. Published in 1970, first edition.
