I am not going to load you with an erudite review. All I can say is that this is a superb collection of photographs for those who love the genre. Nice large images in a hard cover, big and heavy book. Some may find the images somewhat blurred or less than perfect. In fact few of them are technically impeccable. But that's beside the point. These images are meant to be fun and spontaneous and they achieve their goal in full. Also, no redunadant words, just a short foreword and a short biography at the end. Pity the names of the models are not indicated in the thumbnails at the end.

If you like Ellen's style just go for it: well worth the money and the shipping costs.

As long as I can remember, Ellen von Unwerth has always delivered great editorials. Unlike many hit or miss photographers, she has consistently delivered excellent and playful images. The photographs in this book are sexy, light, and well crafted; such a pleasure!

One of the best art books ever. With no doubt, Ellen is consolidated as one of the top photographers in our time, and an upcoming star for the history in photography. Her singular style and incredible fashion photographs are very well represented in this book. She's definitely in the league of the Avedon's and the Newton's. Taschen delivers once again a great soon to be classic, limited edition, with a great design and quality, soon to be worth more than the actual price.

There's no question "Ellen Von Unwerth is the next great one"...

The only slightly weak thing about this book is the cover. Inside you get TOTAL PERFECTION from front to back. I own hundreds and hundreds of fine art Photography books by all the masters and beyond.... This one is in the top ten. Just a FLAWLESS book, so many fantastic shots. Ellen von Unwerth is one of the best Fashion Photographers ever, alive or dead. Get this book, you won't regret it. (and make it your "first choice" Christmas gift for your closest friends). It's no surprise this book has a solid 5 rating... totally deserving.

The book is fantastic. One of the best photography books I have seen. Ellen's photography is of course great. A wonderful combination of images from her career. The printing is top notch and the book itself is a collectors item. Very cool. Black box with a wonderful book. If you like Ellen's work, get this book, you will not be disappointed.

This is an amazing collection of work from one of the most talented photographers. Looking through the pages, I feel as if it is voyeurism and that I am there in that moment the picture was created. The body of work is superb and the interview with Ellen in the back of the book is very insightful. This is a must have treasure, beautifully produced and bounded, numbered and signed by Ms. Unwerth herself and shipped with complete care and protection.
