Book and Print SIGNED and numbered by Richard Avedon.
Compiled from a large volume of images shot on assignment for
Harper’s Bazaar in Paris, Made in France allows a rare insight
into the working methods of one of the twentieth century’s most
influential photographers. Each print is presented at its original
size and on their original mounts with no cropping. Avedon’s
notations and instructions, as well as the original assignment
from Harper’s, are present for each photograph, clearly illustrating
every aspect of Avedon’s process. The included print is of Suzy
Parker and Gardner McKay at the Café des Beaux Arts, Paris
in August 1956, and can be found on page 34 of the book. A
beautiful object as well as a fascinating work, Made in France is
finely crafted through-and-through.
