Synopsis
"Hopp 's skill as a photographer, his interpretation of Australian identity, the cohesion and national scope of the collection make this one of Australia's national treasures." --Linda Groom, curator of pictures, National Library of Australia Photographer E. O. Hopp journeyed to Australia in the 1930s with the goal of capturing "the true spirit" of the nation. Enthralled by the country and its people, he traveled for a year tirelessly capturing images of life in bustling cities as well as the remote interior. No other photographer had presented such a comprehensive national portrait at the time; his iconic images captured a land both wild and refined. Despite being one of the most famous photographers of the 1920s and 1930s, Hopp 's work fell into obscurity after World War II. It was not until the publication of E. O. Hopp 's Amerika that his justly deserved reputation as one of the foremost modernists was restored., "Hoppé's skill as a photographer, his interpretation of Australian identity, the cohesion and national scope of the collection make this one of Australia's national treasures." --Linda Groom, curator of pictures, National Library of Australia Photographer E.

- 2***0 (129)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseShipping was quick, packaging was excellent, condition was acceptable as described -- binding loose but pages intact. I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!
- a***p (8)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque HC 1930 (#396258036329)
