Edmund Teske

Friends of Photography Bookstore, 1980

Photography to die for -- a definite "must have" book.
I got my copy in hardback from Edmund, himself, shortly before his death in November, 1996. Images from Within: The Photographs of Edmund Teske (Untitled, 22) is one of my most precious possessions.

Friends of Photography Bookstore, 1983

With the recent death of Mario Giacomelli (19252000), Europe has lost one of its most talented photographers.
