Observations

First edition, 1959. This beautiful collaborative book presents two kinds of observation, Avedon’s unique photographic portrayal of both prominent people and strangers, placed beside Capote’s insightful notes on the culture and people in the photographs. In addition to the remarkable content, the book was designed by Alexey Brodovitch - the final element in making this a truly iconic publication. 

Very good condition, shelf wear to slipcase as expected with an item of this size and age.
