Inge Morath

An attentive eye for people and places

Inge Morath’s photography brings patient observation to portraits, travel and everyday life. Her work with Magnum connected her with international assignments, while her images retain a close interest in how people inhabit a room, a street or a landscape.

A portfolio allows that attention to unfold across separate photographs. The 1975 suite in the Breething Books catalog presents fifteen signed gelatin silver prints, bringing the individual image and the carefully assembled ensemble into view.

Books, portfolios and editions

When comparing Inge Morath photographs, books and portfolios, the edition details matter as much as the image: printing date, photographic process, sheet and image size, signatures or numbering, completeness, and original portfolio or housing can distinguish materially different objects. Breething Books records those copy-specific features on the individual item or acquisition record rather than treating every appearance of the same image as equivalent.
