'Waterfront- Water in Photography since 1852' by Jorge Calado
A book definitely worth taking a look at. Stumbled across it in the library this morning and it is full of photographic gems. Images from 1800's to 1950's to 1990's all linked to water in some way. It completely goes with the work I am doing at the minute for The Swimmer and it shows the sheer variety of imagery that can be captured with water.
These are my favourites:
 |
| Francis J. Mortimer The Spirit of the storm, 1911 |
 |
| Frank Hurley The Last Break, 1912 |
 |
| William Rittase Diver, 1940 |
 |
| Leni Riefenstahl Miss Gestring, participant of the Olympic Games for Swimming, competing for the USA, 1936 |
 |
| Javia Silva Meinel Rostro com peces, Shipiba, Pucalpa, Peru, 1996 |
 |
| Jacques-Henri Lartigue Zissou in his tire boat, Roussat, 1911 |
