Exposures by Jane Bown. First edition (2009). Second impression. Medium format hardback in near fine condition, no internal markings, there is some minor scuffing to the jacket whi ch is now in a removable protective sleeve. About Exposures Jane Bown has been taking portraits for the Observer for sixty years. Working almost exclusively in black and white and also with natural light, she produces astonishingly candid photographs that reveal the private side of her famous subjects. She works quickly, unobtrusively and decisively, often snatching great pictures in impossible circumstances, and she has an unerring instinct for capturing the telling moment, even in the midst of a media scrum or rushed in mid-interview.
