Synopsis
Farmers, Russians, grieving mothers, native dancers, an Afghan woman with a birdcage on her head, bare-breasted beauties, Nigerian tribesmen, a geisha with a cigarette--these images and more are included in this distillation of 280 portraits, spanning the entire 20th century, from the National Geographic Society's enormous collection. Chosen for both their technical skill and the power of their subject matter, the portraits illustrate not only the variety of human beings on the planet, but the ability of photography to instruct, inform, and make a connection with the viewer. They are equally interesting as a short course in the way photography has changed over the course of a century. This sumptuous volume also contains informative essays by such photographers as Sam Abell, Jodie Jobb, and William Albert Allard.
