RHYTHM AND REPOSE

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1937. First Edition. Spiral bound. Very good. I prefer to consider the photographs in this book as mere experiments or attempts to show the female figure in varied poses, actions, and surroundings, trying thereby to reveal some of the beauty which must be a joy to every lover of nature." Born in Puerto Rico, Lohse (1892-1947) specialised in advertising and magazine features, and shot covers for Vogue. Quarto: unpaginated with 76 photographic images. Spiral bound in the original pictorial paper wrappers. Period bookplate to the front pastedown. Some general toning and wear along the extremities; otherwise very good.
