But what is less well known is that he has never ceased to reflect on the meaning of photography. From his famous \u003cem\u003eAdieu Photographie \u003c\/em\u003e(1972) to the present day, he has written numerous essays and articles, most of which have remained unpublished in French. Alongside a selection of his photographs that resonate with the theme, this book will present numerous texts translated from Japanese for the first time. An entire chapter is devoted to his obsession with the very first photograph, \u003cem\u003ePoint de vue du Gras\u003c\/em\u003e, taken by the Frenchman Nicéphore Niépce between 1826 and 1827 at his home in St Loup de Varenne. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"authors\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eText in French only.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Daido Moriyama","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57315713122677,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/4583\/2067\/files\/lettr.jpg?v=1782382562","url":"https:\/\/photobookstore.co.uk\/products\/lettres-damour-a-la-photographie","provider":"Photobookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
