Working Girls
What started out as a simple trip to a postcard fair turned into a lifelong investigation for author Robert Flynn Johnson. Captivated by the beauty and originality of a group of nineteenth-century photographs of women, he had to know more. Now, nearly a decade after his first encounter with the images, Johnson has uncovered more than two hundred vintage photographs of women who lived and worked at a brothel in Reading, Pennsylvania, circa 1892.

Peter Milton
Peter Milton is one of America's most intriguing artists. His black-and-white figurative etchings and engravings are at once surreal, erotic, and technically complex. This fascinating volume showcases all of Milton's etchings to date, from 1960 to the present, including two extensive series that illustrate the Henry James masterworks The Jolly Corner and The Aspern Papers. The etchings, many of which are accompanied by details enlarged to actual size, are illuminated by an in-depth introduction by curator Robert Flynn Johnson. Providing added insight into Milton's career and techniques are a fascinating interview between Johnson and Milton and Milton's essay about his famous Daylilies and Nijinsky Variations series and the inspirations behind them. A biography and bibliography complete this rich portfolio.

A stunning collection of portraits of vegetables, fruits, and flowers by a turn-of-the-twentieth-century visionary In 1981, at Bermondsey Market in London, Sean Sexton, the Irish-born photographic collector, chanced upon the gelatin silver prints of photographer Charles Jones. Dating from the turn of the century, these beguiling studio “portraits” of tulips and sunflowers, onions and turnips, plums and pears are skillfully executed and startling in their originality. Shot as close-ups, with long exposure and spare composition, the works anticipate by decades the later achievements of modernist masters. This volume presents Jones’s photography in sections devoted to vegetables, flowers,...
