Présentation de l'éditeur :
In the world of his evocative and magnificent photography, nothing is quite what it seems. The photographs collected in this remarkable book record, without alteration, what was within the field of view of the lens when the film was exposed. Yet the worlds of Oglesbee creates, often as elaborately constructed and illuminated as small movie sets, are both paradoxical and richly expressive. Lovingly reproduced in rich quadtone printing, these photographs can be seen here in all their completely, as they were meant to be seen.
