A photographer’s working record

Drawn from sixty-nine journals kept over more than fifty years, this volume brings together selected diary pages and photographs by Josef Koudelka. Facsimile pages sit alongside images, including self-portraits, connecting his written record with his photographic practice. The description places this material in the context of projects on Roma communities, the 1968 Soviet-led invasion of Prague, and human impact on the landscape.
