5.0 out of 5 stars Exquisite Photography, January 18, 2000

By	Anna Flowers, author (Satellite Beach, Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dassonville: William E. Dassonville, California Photographer (1879-1957) (Hardcover)

Review in the newsletter of The Friends of Photography:

"This important new monograph reveals the life and work of 20th century pictorialist William Dassonville. The artist's exquisite style is only now beginning to be understood and appreciated, nearly fifty years after his death."
