Man Ray's Paris Portraits: 1921-1939

"Man Ray photographed the artists, writers, musicians, politicians, and members of café society that surrounded him at the height of his career. Man Ray's Portraits: 1921-39 presents the most comprehensive view of this part of the artist's work. Mr. Baum, in his accompanying essay, touches upon Man Ray's aesthetic gift and also illuminates the reasons why so many greats or soon-to-be-greats desired a sitting with the American surrealist."--the publisher.
