Fine/Fine. np (64pp), 49 duotone illustrations. Designed by Hideyuki Taguchi and Chris Pichler. "Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station is located in Nottinghamshire, England. Michael Kenna first began photographing the power station in the early 1980s, and over the past several years he has visited the site many times, producing a body of work as ominous as it is beautiful. A brilliant manipulator of half-light, Kenna’s grainy, spatial topography epitomizes the gray skies of Northern England that were the ubiquitous backdrop to his childhood". A worthy successor to "The Rouge", this is another of the photographer's charged books of industrial photography with a message. A brand new, most handsome example additionally BOLDLY SIGNED "Michael Kenna" in black ink on the title page. 1-59005-097-5 Inventory Number: 012308
