About
This boxed set of two books contains images selected by Herb Ritts from the first decade of his work in photography. Taken for his own pleasure, many of these pictures were rejected for publication in popular magazines which judged them either too eccentric or erotic for their readers. The pleasure of the artist at work is felt in these photographs, which do not compromise the artist's individual vision for the sake of popular acceptance. The beautiful men and women who populate these pages are familiar for their work in commercial modeling, but Herb Ritts' camera shows them in a new and familiar light.
