Alfred Ehrhardt - Das Watt, Verlag Heinrich Ellermann, 1937, Hamburg
Hardcover clothbound with dustjacket.
"Ehrhardt's photographs of a commonplace subject - mudflats after the tide has receded - are simple, striking and carefully crafted. Although this kind of thing had often been done before, Ehrhardt does it particularly well. He chooses the low sun of morning or evening, shooting either directly into the light or with strong sidelighting to make the most of the ripple effects left by the departing tide. The sheen produced by the sun raking across the wet mud heightens the modelling effect. This is both an attractively designed and finely printed book - an island of tranquil beauty in a cultural sea that was becoming increasingly barbaric" Parr/Badger - The Photobook, A History volume I
