Atget : Photographe de Paris is the perfect starting point for a series on great photography books.
Published in 1930, three years after Atget's death, it is now regarded as a classic that
influenced generations of artists including Berenice Abbott and Walker Evans.
Books on Books 1 reproduces all 96 collotype plates and an English translation of the
Pierre Mac Orlan text on Eug�ne Atget's remarkable documentation of Paris at the
turn of the 19th century. The noted author, David Campany, contributes a contemporary
essay called Atget's Intelligent Documents written for this volume.
