Summary:One in a series of books of Abbott's images to be published by Steidl that individually explores the diverse aspects of her career. This volume represents Abbott's earliest photographic venture. The images in this book were scanned from the original glass plate negatives. In their honesty and clarity, they illustrate the guiding philosophy of all of her subsequent work as a photographer. All of the photographs in this book were scanned at full size from Berenice Abbott's original glass plates. Abbott herself conceived a book of her portraits, carefully deciding the cropping of each image. This book shows two consecutive reproductions of each photograph: the first shows Abbott's cropping, the second reveals the entire glass plate.
