william_hahn1 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I have a fat paperback simply entitled "Doisneau Paris", published by Gingko, and also look for the name "Brigitte Ollier".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtdnyc Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Also consider his "Three Seconds From Eternity," three seconds being the total exposure time of all the pictures in the book combined. (At 1/30 per photo, that's 90 photos!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denise_d Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 I Have the same book as William mentioned, great book. Also have a smaller paperback just titled "Robert Doisneau" by Jean-Claude Gautrand, published by a company called Taschen. I purchased it in the UK, but I've seen it in the US as well. 195 pages, text in English, French and German. Interesting book...made for a great read on the flight back from Heathrow last year.

fanta Posted November 1, 2006 Author Share Posted November 1, 2006 Thank you all. Could you please let me know if "Doisneau Paris" was written in French and then translated in English, or the other way around? It should be stated on the back of the first cover, or anyway in the first few pages along with the copyright notices. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william_hahn1 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Francesco, The introductory essay by Bridget Ollier was written in French (I assume, she is/was a journalist for Liberation) and translated into English. The translator's name is given on the last page. --Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
