Widely recognized as a leading figure of New Objectivity photography, Alfred Ehrhardt was one of the most prolific and successful photographers among the former Bauhaus artists. Over the course of his career, he published more than twenty photo books and produced a series of visually striking films that explored modernity through the lens of 1920s avant-garde aesthetics. His experimental documentaries are now considered seminal works in the history of both cultural and scientific filmmaking. – A beautiful tonal print in excellent condition.
