Dorr, Nell: Mother and Child. 1954. Cloth.
New York: Harper & Row. 1954. (First edition). Octavo. Pictorial cloth covered boards. Cloth has a trace of scuffing else fine. Publisher's rubber stamp on verso of front fly and top edge. From the writings from a Nell Dorr website "Nell Dorr, in Mother and Child, seeks to capture the affection and affinity between a mother and a child. Nell Dorr used her camera to expose this affinity 'Become as one, you and your camera, clear as glass and selfless.' The maternal connection is a 'divine mystery' to Nell Dorr. 'I see woman as the yeast of life without which all the dough in the world would not rise. The mother gives love to her child, inspiration to man and beauty to the world' (Popular Photography, March 1975). In Mother and Child, Nell Dorr gracefully combines loving photographs with her own eloquent words and poems. During World War II, Nell Dorr took her three daughters (whose husbands were serving in the military) and her six grandchildren to a house in New Hampshire where she was joined by Tasha Tudor's family and her god-children. According to Nell Dorr, 'A day is remembered for itself and the picture is all that we finally keep.'" A beautiful copy of a lovely book printed in beautiful gravure. Scarce.
