I never tire looking at this book. The plates are the best reproduction I've seen in a long time, and a great selection. This book examines why color did not "take" like black and white early on, and argues how it rose up by focusing on color theory and ideas where black and white photography couldn't. It lent itself to a whole new aesthetic.Rohrbach is thoughtful and convincing in his argument for color, and it's importance. A great book to have in my library
Believe it or not, I haven't looked at it yet, it was a Christmas gift to myself. I imagine it to be exciting and beautiful and very educational for someone who loves colour Photography, as I do.
Informative history or color photography. Very much a tome, but not a tomb. Worth buying and reading if you want to know where you are in the history of photography.
