This 1956 production of Gotthard Schuh's working Java, Sumatra and Bali is a pure masterpiece. The production quality of the book is of an exceptionally high standard with the images (B&W) of near print standard. Schuh's work is from a time of true travel, exploration and adventure. In order to bring home to a European audience the essence of Bali etc, only the highest standards of photography and journalism/prose was acceptable.
Considering the fact that this work is of an analogue (golden) age, it is stunning to see how it measures up to and exceeds current digital standards.
Wonderful.
