Brassai - Paris Photo Book

 "Prostitutes, hoodlums, and other ‘marginal’ characters were the most famous heroes of Brassaï’s moody, gritty photographs taken often by night. Including an extensive selection of Brassaï’s finest photographs and an essay describing his life and work, this book explores the world of Brassaï in thematic chapters: Minotaure magazine, Paris at Night, Secret Paris, Day Visions, Artists of My Life, and Graffiti and Transmutations."

I like the cover because his name and the name of the book stand out even if it's red. This shade of red is better than the other one, the dirty red.

I don't know why but this time the text underneath the image goes well. In the last book by Atget I thought it was too much but in this one I this it goes really well.It's probably about the images as well, they are more easy to look at as for Atget's book there were nudes and maybe uncomfortable angles.

I like his images especially the ones taken at night.

I like his book.It's not boring, the images are engaging and I suppose I would love to have his book.
