Saul Leiter

Cloth hardcover (with banderole) Hardcover English, German 296 pages 22 x 26.4 cm 1.5 kg

Description

The photobook Saul Leiter explores the intimate interplay of color, light, and shadow characteristic of Leiter’s pioneering street photography. His images often reveal urban scenes through reflections, rain-soaked windows, and blurred contours, creating a delicate and painterly mood that challenges traditional documentary approaches.

Comprising 296 pages, the collection presents a comprehensive overview of Leiter’s work, emphasizing his subtle use of abstraction within everyday moments. The photographs engage with themes of isolation and quiet observation in mid-20th century city life, inviting a meditative viewing experience.
