Hervé approached his subjects seeking not only to document the buildings he was commissioned to photograph but also, especially, to convey a sense of space, texture, and structure. Through light and shadow, Hervé defined the dialogue between substance and form. By delineating a strong contrast between light and shadow as well as placing emphasis on building details, the photographer was able to communicate the depth of a room, the surface of a wall, or the strength of a building's framework.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor too long, Hervé—the master of architectural photography—has eclipsed Hervé—the photographer—whose career began as early as 1938 and whose subject matter varied widely. Featuring more than one hundred of his photographs in every genre, this book celebrates Hervé's work as an artist, creating images that serve not simply as records but stand as works of a singular imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOlivier Beer is a poet, novelist, playwright, and screenwriter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e224 pages\u003cbr\u003e9 3\/4 x 12 1\/4 inches\u003cbr\u003e12 color and 205 b\/w illustrations\u003cbr\u003eISBN 978-0-89236-754-7\u003cbr\u003ehardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGetty Publications\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Getty Research Institute\u003cbr\u003e2004\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\"Superbly printed album which shows Hervé to be a master of composition, whether it's a close-up of the Eiffel Tower or a child silhouetted against a silvery expanse of ocean.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLA Architect\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A marvelous book to be enjoyed by architects, photographers, artists, and scholars.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Bloomsbury Review\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GETTY TRUST PUBLICATIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67568625189154,"sku":"efm1792569421696","price":19.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/2249\/9618\/files\/lucien-herve-building-images_1.jpg?v=1792569428","url":"https:\/\/mossmerton.com\/products\/lucien-herve-building-images","provider":"Mossmerton","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
