3.0 out of 5 stars
Good pictures, but lacks a coherent point of view.,
By A Customer
This review is from: At the Wall (Hardcover)
Ron Agam, Yaakov's son, is an accomplished photographer, as is evident in this book. The photographs included depict the activities of the haredim in Jerusalem, at the Kotel and elsewhere. The pictures are good, all in black and white, and manage to catch the various emotions of the ultra-Orthodox as they go about their daily lives, mostly in prayer.The problem with the book is that it doesn't live up to its title. Only half the pictures are taken at the Kotel. The others are in the Meah Shearim, and other haredi institutions. Once he's away from the Wall, there is no coherent point of view, either of the subject matter, or what the pictures are meant to convey. As a coherent photo essay, the book is lacking in (forgive me) focus. As a collection of good pictures, it works. |
