- Summary:
- His pictures are among the classics of photography history and are exhibited in many museums around the world. Several of his motifs are even considered icons of documentary photography and have achieved six-figure prices on the art market.But what do we know about the life of the photographer August Sander? What do we know about him and his family, his everyday life and the constant efforts to earn money with photography? And who were the seventeen young women who lived under the same roof as their master as apprentices? The answers are provided by this biography, which documents August Sander's life and his environment as precisely and in as much detail as possible, with historical sources and - for the first time - with an eyewitness account from an apprentice. In the appendix there is also, for the first time, a list of his publications during his lifetime. -- translated from publisher's website, viewed 12/11/2024.
