See moreThis is the last photo book conceived and curated by Elliott Erwitt before his death in 2023. It showcases the most entertaining photographs from his extensive portfolio: a final humorous salutation. Text in English, German, French and Italian.
If anyone manages to capture the humour in everyday scenes, it is photography legend Elliott Erwitt, who sadly died at the end of 2023. From the 1950s onward, he photographed not only celebrities and famous political figures, but also sociopolitical events, producing many iconic photos. His passion, however, was for snapshots, which he often photographed with a twinkle in his eye.
Last Laughs shows the most amusing photographs from Elliott Erwitt's extensive portfolio.
Author: Elliott Erwitt, who was born in Paris in 1928 to Russian parents, came to the U.S. in the late 1930s. After establishing himself as a magazine photographer over the next decade and a half, he joined the renowned Magnum photo agency in 1953. In addition to his work for magazines, he also had great success as an advertising photographer. Elliott Erwitt died at the end of November 2023 at the age of 95.
