ELLIOTT ERWITT (1928-2023) A Portfolio of Ten Photographs. 1946-68; printed 1974.
Est: $7,000 - $10,000
ELLIOTT ERWITT (1928-2023) A Portfolio of Ten Photographs. 1946-68; printed 1974. Featuring the photographer's iconic pictures. Silver prints, the images measuring approximately 9½x13½ inches (24.1x34.3 cm.), and the reverse, the mounts 16x20 inches (40.6x50.8 cm.), each with Erwitt's signature in ink on mount recto, and the Witkin-Berley portfolio label with the print and portfolio numbers in ink on mount verso. Folio-sized photo-pictorial and graphically printed brown folder and slipcase featuring his iconic Chihuahua; the colophon with Erwitt's signature and edition number 17; contents loose as issued. ONE OF AN EDITION OF 25. New York: Witkin-Berley Ltd., 1946-68; printed 1974. "The ten photographs in this portfolio are a cross section of my "personal pictures." They represent the more thoughtful onehundredtwentyfifths of a second (on the average) of my photographic life. These pictures were mostly snapped "on my way to the studio; that is, they were not done with special purpose or with preconception. In my particular case, that is the way I respond to the subjects that make up my ultimate photographic inventory. Luckily, visual humor and pathos, as I perceive them, are ever present and quickly recognizable. (I believe that they probably exist even in a meeting of the Supreme Soviet.) So my task, as I see it, is to formalize that recognition by recording it with minimum manipulation, hopefully with some style and insight; and by respecting and taking the subject matter very seriously, while at the same time not taking it seriously at all. ...but most of all, I believe that a reasonable picture is worth more than 163 words." --Elliott Erwitt, July, 1974 New York, 1946 * Orleans, France, 1952 * Nicaragua, 1954 * Las Vegas, 1957 * Brasilia, 1961 (2 different images) * Venice, 1965 * Bratsk, Siberia, 1967 * Florida, 1968 * Miami Beach, 1968

Signed, titled and dated by the photographer in pencil, and numerical notations by an unknown hand in pencil on the reverse. PROVENANCE Howard Greenberg Gallery, New York. LITERATURE Elliott Erwitt's Paris, Kempen 2010, cover and p. 10f. The cover motif of Elliott Erwitt's Paris book is an homage to Cartier-Bresson's famous "Puddle jumper" from 1932 and yet a typical Erwitt, most obvious in the umbrellas of the lovers in the background. He is one of the most distinguished representatives of humanistic photojournalism, and in his masterful snapshots he is particularly characterised by his humour. The book drew an essence of Erwitt's best shots from the Seine metropolis. It was here that he had been born to Russian-Jewish parents. At the age of 11, Erwitt had to emigrate to the USA, where he began taking photographs and became a full member of Magnum in 1953. * Fully Taxed Deutsch: Silbergelatineabzug, später geprintet auf kartonstarkem, halbmattem Papier 27,7 x 35,4 cm, in ausgezeichnetem Zustand. Rückseitig vom Fotografen mit Bleistift signiert, betitelt, datiert und numerische Vermerke von unbekannter Hand. PROVENIENZ Howard Greenberg Gallery, New York. LITERATUR Elliott Erwitt's Paris, Kempen 2010, Cover und S. 10f. Das Titelbild des Paris-Buches von Elliott Erwitt ist eine Hommage an den berühmten "Pfützenspringer" von Cartier-Bresson von 1932 und dennoch ein typischer Erwitt, am deutlichsten erkennbar an den Schirmen des Liebespaares im Hintergrund. Er gehört zu den profiliertesten Vertretern des humanistischen Fotojournalismus, und in seinen meisterhaften Schnappschüssen zeichnet er sich besonders durch seinen Humor aus. Erwitts Paris-Buch zog eine Essenz seiner besten Aufnahmen aus der Seine-Metropole. Hier war er als Sohn russisch-jüdischer Eltern zur Welt gekommen. Mit 11 Jahren musste Erwitt in die USA emigrieren, wo er zu fotografieren begann und 1953 Vollmitglied bei Magnum wurde. * Vollbesteuert
