Review: Bellocq: Photographs From Storyville,The Red-Light District of New Orleans

Bellocq: Photographs From Storyville,The Red-Light District of New Orleans by E.J. Bellocq
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Beautifully printed, oversized full page repros of Bellocq's seminal photography of brothel women on 1912 Storyville, New Orleans. This includes introductory material of the story of the negatives, context by Susan Sontag and a conclusion roundtable of people that new, if only in passing, the mysterious photographer.
