The volume is dedicated to Clarence H. White, who died in 1925. Among the tributes paid to White: "I think that if I were asked to name the most subtle and refined master photography has produced, that I would name him...To be a true artist in photography one must also be an artist in life, and Clarence H. White was such an artist." Alvin Langdon Coburn: "What he brought to photography was an extraordinary sense of light." Beaumont Newhall; "Clarence White's poetic vision and sensitive intuition produced images that insinuate themselves deeply into one's consciousness." - Edward Steichen.

Rubbing with light fraying at spine ends, some rubbing at edges and corners, a few scuffs and stains; front hinge cracked, leaves somewhat toned; very good.
