ISBN: 9780810955462.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile Frankfurt-born Ilse Bings 1931 Self-Portrait with Leica is an icon of modern photography, her exquisite black-and-white compositions, created mostly during her years in exile in Paris and New York, have not received nearly the attention they deserve. This first-ever monograph of the photographer (1899-1998) dubbed the \"Queen of the Leica\" is cause for celebration on two counts: Those with an interest in Bings work now have an authoritative source to consult; and students of the form now have proof that Bing ranks alongside Brassaï, Man Ray, and Henri Cartier-Bresson in the pantheon of 20th-century avant-garde photography. This book, based largely on unpublished material from Bings personal archive, combines biography with an in-depth study of her work in its historical context, creating a portrait of the artist as revealing as it is overdue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Abrams Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986843955253,"sku":"ByrdShop_0810955466","price":135.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780810955462_b08a6af9-cb8a-43ad-b4b2-76746a3dbad7.jpg?v=1778812706","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/ilse-bing-photography-through-the-looking-glass-9780810955462","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
