This book is a superb collection of American scenes taken in the 1940, 1950s and 1960s by one of photography's all time greats, Andreas Feininger. Each image is a fine example of Feininger's incorruptible sense of proportion, a tribute to the inimitable aesthetic quality that became the signature of his work. Many illustrate his ceaseless quest to minimize the difference between idea and reality, his desire to allow mundane subjects to slip into Utopia. With his unique and remarkable photographs of New York, Andreas Feininger set a creative benchmark for all who would follow in his wake. Feininger's America is a photographic tour de force, from Chicago to New Orleans, from Hollywood to Coral Gables. More Reviews and Recommendations Editorial Reviews - America From the Publisher
