About This Item
Bulfinch, 2000. Book. Good. Soft cover. First Paper Edition. 215mm x 270mm. LIght general wear to covers. Internally clean. Binding good. 256pp An introduction to the hard-boiled tabloid photographer Weegee. From the 1930s to the 1960s his images of murder, mayhem and the seamy underside of New York set a new standard and influenced a generation of of imitators in black and white street photography. Working with a Speed Graphic and an on-camera flash, he shot in a stark, punchy, in-your-face style, often capturing his subjects in a startling blast of light. This retrospective showcases his jolting work - and captures bygone New York at its most raucous, dangerous and outrageous. Here are Weegee's grisly murders, shocking accidents, gawking crowds and other signature crime-and-disaster shots, along with his equally arresting human interest and high society images..
