A photo book "The Map (Maquette Edition)" by Kikuji Kawada, one of Japan's leading photographers after the war. Compared to its overwhelming popularity and name recognition, he has published few photo collections, but in recent years he has continued to upload "Memories of a Distant Place 1951-1966" and "Last Cosmology", and in recent years on Instagram. "Vortex", a collection of color illustrations, has also been announced and is attracting attention again. This book is a new edition of Kawada's masterpiece "Map", a monumental work that engraves its name in the history of photo books not only in Japan but also in the world. It has been reprinted so far by Getsuyosha in 2005 and by Akio Nagasawa in 2014, but this book was handmade at the time as the concept of this work, and was stored in the New York Public Library in 2001. This is a complete reprint of the edition. Since the design is different from the original version of the double door, a new way of looking at the "map" was presented. In addition to texts by the same library researcher, interviews with Kawada are also included. Signed by the photographer .
