Description
|
|
|
|
By turns poignant, humorous, erotic, and disturbing, the anonymous photographs assembled here by curator Robert Flynn Johnson are both widely varied and mysterious, though their common subject is the human condition. Richly reproduced in color, revealing the subtle tonalities that mark their age, the 220 photographs include previously unseen portraits of such famous faces as Cary Grant, Richard Burton, and Marlene Dietrich. "This mounting of photographs taken by now-unknown hands is different, and if you can keep from smiling broadly at several of them, you should loosen up."—Booklist "Almost without exception (the pictures) are arresting accidents of artistic expression, alive with personality."—San Francisco Magazine
