About This Item
Synopsis
The Secret Paris of the '30s is the compilation of the well-known but never-seen "secret photographs" of Brassai. This evocative photographic memoir is affectionally captioned by the photographer himself, and reveals the forbidden Paris of the 1930s - its brothels, whores, pimps, and opium dens. A must-have for any fans of Brassai or playwright Henry Miller, who often accompanied the photographer on his trips to the underground.
