The French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson once observed: "If, in making a portrait, you hope to capture the inner silence of your subject, you must try to put your camera between the skin of a person and her shirt." New York photographer Sanders McNew presents a series of portraits of naked women with accompanying essays that together question and challenge the nature of portraiture. 160 pages, including 121 portraits and accompanying text.

Fascinating book. The listing of professions and stations in life recalls August Sander and some of the work of Avedon. Whether portraiture is the noblest of those genre practices associated with photography is debatable, and yet it would be a very lively contentious debate, indeed. By turns sensual, austere, unsparing, observant or oblivious to certain manifestations of the surface of beauty, the images are flawlessly edited, sculptural and elegant, accepting and at the same time at odds with the notion of posing, with a consistency of presentation that gives every indication that the artist knows the neighborhood of his style in its lean gamut of permutations. With its clear-eyed text and diverse choice of authors with whom to compare, contrast, or contest in their reading of what constitutes a portrait or a photographer's manner of perception, the essay is a stately and measured provocation. Bravo!

I suggest reading the words of this book before getting enthralled with the images which you will. Sanders does an amazing job of questioning if any of us have ever really captured someone in an image completely.
How much of an image is mine (the photographers) personal idiosyncrasies and how much is the person I am shooting? Where does my ability and skill end and the subject's essence begin? Questions you will still have after reading this book. I will promise you this, the questions Sanders ponders here will make you aware of so much more then you thought of on your own. You will have to take better images after reading this book.
Or?
You can just look at the beautiful images, those alone are worth the price. In total a great deal for such an abundant source of information and beauty.

Brilliant book, a must have for film shooters.
The work of Sanders is outstanding, and this project is original and milestone for portrait photography.
Not only is Sanders a outstanding photographer but also gifted writer
