Provenance : Jacques Auclair (inscription from Charbonnier). FIRST EDITION, RARE. PRESENTATION COPY INSCRIBED BY THE PHOTOGRAPHER, in French: "To the [ship] Striana, that's to say to Dr. Auclair, in the hope that a future book, if there is one, will include a few examples of a wonderful experience of friendship and of the sea. (Because it is photos of what touches me that I take and that I keep.) Jean-Philippe-Charbonnier. 7 July 1960". A "fine book" by "one of France's leading photojournalists", which can be seen as a manifesto of the humanist mode of photography ( The Photobook ).
