Riassunto

Published in paperback for the first time, this grand celebration of a life devoted to photography presents a wide-ranging look at his work, from his days as a press photographer in Germany in the late twenties through his long, prolific and illustrious career at LIFE which began with the first issue of the magazine in 1936. Included are pictures of historic events such as the first meeting of Hitler and Mussolini and vivid portraits of many of the most famous people of this century - statesmen, scientists, artists, writers, actors, politicians, philosophers and endearing images of ordinary people in mid-century America and Europe. As diverse as they are, the photographs are unified by Eisenstaedt's eye and by his intuitive ability to record key moments of the human experience.
