Delpire in 1958 "In 1958, the first edition of Robert Frank's The Americans was published in Paris. Les Americains contained Frank's 83 photographs in the same sequence as all subsequent editions, with the image on the right hand page, but juxtaposed with historical texts about American society and politics, gathered by Alain Bosquet. The following year, in the first American edition, the French texts were removed and an introduction by Jack Kerouac was added. Over the subsequent 50 years, The Americans has been republished in many editions, in numerous languages, with a variety of cover designs and even in a range of sizes. It is the most famous photography book ever published, and it changed the face of the medium forever. Robert Frank discussed with his publisher, Gerhard Steidl, the idea of producing a new edition using modern scanning and the finest tritone printing. The starting point was to bring original prints from New York to Gottingen, Germany, where Steidl is based. In July 2007, Frank visited Gottingen. A new format for the book was worked out and new typography selected. A new cover was designed and Frank chose the book cloth, foil for embossing and the endpaper. Most significantly, as he has done for every edition of The Americans, Frank changed the cropping of many of the photographs, usually including more information. Two images were changed completely from the original 1958 and 1959 editions."--Publisher's description Hier auch später erschienene, unveränderte Nachdrucke Frank, Robert 1924- Geschichte 1955-1956 gnd Photography, Artistic Street photography United States 20th century Fotografie (DE-588)4045895-7 gnd Bevölkerung (DE-588)4006287-9 gnd USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd United States Social life and customs 1945-1970 Pictorial works United States Pictorial works Bildband gnd-content u LI 30497 FrRo idslu LV Kerouac Jack 1922-1969 (DE-588)118561561 Verfasser einer Einleitung win NL201908 idslu L1 470 IDS LU IDSLU 100 1- Frank Robert 1924-2019 (DE-588)118855387 Fotograf pht IDSLU 700 1- Kerouac Jack 1922-1969 (DE-588)118561561 Verfasser einer Einleitung win SWISSBIB 115046534 BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 IDSLU LUZHB LUZHB ZBFRE LI 30497 FrRo 2008 Ed. 11 (2017)
