One of the most beautiful art photography books of our time. One of the best books on the photographic art and achievement of Pentti Sammallahti. The First Hardcover Edition.

The reproduction quality is outstanding in every respect. Without DJ, as issued. Presents Pentti Sammallahti's "Des Oiseaux". The best book in the now-legendary Series by Atelier EXB, a serenely meditative - and visually imaginative - sequence that will not be surpassed by any other contemporary photographer. The only bird book that can be compared to it as an artistic achievement is Masahisa Fukase's "Karasu" ("Ravens"), with which it has nothing in common in terms of emotional temperature: Fukase is dark and anguished; Sammallahti is luminous and joyful. "His photographs attest to his extraordinary eye for detail, to light that sculpts spaces, to silent expanses in which a human or animal presence suddenly appears. The experience of the image is twofold: Beyond its narrative virtuosity, his use of a two-color process, with immaculate whites (as in the plumage of his swans or pink flamingos) confronted with deep blacks, creates a play of textures and powerfully renders a world" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Pentti Sammallahti collectors. This Autographed Copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Pentti Sammallahti. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a overlay tipped-in page. This title is a great art photography book. As far as we know, this is the only such title-page signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Precedes and should NOT be confused with the 2020 Second Edition. A rare signed copy thus. 66 duotone plates. One of the greatest photographers of our time. A fine collectible copy.
