Ruth Bernhard:Eternal Body 2011

In print for 25 years and now available as an elegant hardcover, "Ruth Bernhard: The Eternal Body" is the first collection of Bernhard's finest nudes to be presented in a single monograph. In her private quest to 'simplify, isolate, and give emphasis to form with greatest clarity,' Bernhard passionately created a collection of images that rank among the most profound photographs of the female nude. Her intense, studied camera work produced images of the human form that clearly transcend the boundaries between the spirit and the flesh.
