Willem Arnoldus Witsen, Yolande De Bruyn — Willem Witsen. Fotograaf
Den Haag: Dienst Verspreide Rijkscollecties. First edition, first printing. 12 pp., 30x21. Condition: Very Good (VG). Fine copy. Photographs, rather than paintings or etchings, are the focus of this travelling-exhibition publication. The exhibition was organised by the exhibitions department of the Dutch state collections service and was also shown at Museum De Lakenhal. Its subject is the photographic work of an artist who practised painting and printmaking alongside photography. He developed and printed photographs of his family and friends himself, and, unlike Breitner, hardly ever used his photographs as models for paintings. The emphasis here is on his work with the camera.
