Description
Witness to a Century
100 years of photographic history: we are honouring the Leica camera as a technical masterpiece and a trusted companion to photographers across generations. From remarkable discoveries and groundbreaking milestones to compelling anecdotes and iconic images – this book encapsulates the spirit of Leica photography in a way that is informative, surprising, evocative and true to its legacy.
A Visually Stunning Journey Into the Leica Universe
Our book is a kaleidoscope, brimming with mosaic fragments from Leica’s rich history. Were you aware, for instance, that a Leica anthem was recorded? Did you know that there is a Leica stamp? How about the very special collector’s item paired with a Fender guitar? Naturally, the technology and the history of the invention are not overlooked in this book – they are interwoven with the images and narratives that define Leica’s unmistakable legacy. We offer insights into the evolution of design and advertising while showcasing rare discoveries from the Leica archive. Embark on an expedition to Greenland, drop in on Picasso taking a bath or journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Leica represents far more than pioneering camera technology: it is a universe unto itself – a diverse, interconnected family, ever ready to reveal a new discovery or unexpected delight.
Legendary images, remarkable discoveries and groundbreaking milestones chart the ascent of this iconic camera – brought together in a century-spanning compendium of Leica photography. Presented in a high-quality hardcover (200 × 260 mm) with a tactilely engaging design, silver foil embossing and a red ribbon marker, this book transforms insights into the evolution of the iconic camera into an interesting visual experience. Across 320 pages and featuring over 170 images, this book presents 100 compelling photo stories: a treasure trove of discoveries, images and insights, crafted for Leica enthusiasts and the wider world.
