Photo book "Embrace (With Leaflet)" by Eikoh Hosoe, one of Japan's leading photographers. Through collaborations with artists, such as the 1st photo book "Otoko to Onna", the first collaboration with Tatsumi Hijikata, and "Barakei" with the author Yukio Mishima, the "life" and "sexuality" hidden in the depths of human beings are explored. Eikoh Hosoe pursued a problem and devoted himself to free and experimental photographic expression. His conceptual style and works that incorporate Japanese elements are said to have made post-war Japanese photography recognized around the world. This book is a masterpiece of Eikoh Hosoe published in 1971. Below is an excerpt from the photographer's postscript: "Ten years have passed without confirming the strength and kindness of 'Embrace.' The reason why I couldn't fulfill the "embrace" that I made to myself for 10 years was because I couldn't surpass Bill Brand's (Nude). I think I've surpassed it." Obi missing. Leaflet included.
