Ilya Ehrenburg - Moi Parizh (Эренбург Мой Париж), Izogiz, 1933, Moscow

 

Hardcover in publisher slipcase, dust jacket was available on request for one Ruble (printed on the backcover). Design and typography by El Lissitzky, images by Ehrenburg.

The Paris of Ilya Ehrenburg knows no Louvre or Notre Dame and shows the Eiffel Tower crouching behind shabby facades and building timber. The Paris in which the Russian revolutionary lived from 1908 to 1940 was a place in which completely normal people with little money and hope struggled through life. Ehrenburg photographed them at their doors and in cafes, at work and at rest, in their poverty and dignity, and wrote brief texts that describe them. My Paris is an impressive work of photographic social reporting. It presents portraits of the elderly and children, workers and outcasts and stands in stark contrast to the glamorous Paris of so many idealized representations. (from the publisher of the reprint)
