Essence of White

Rating:
Summary: Leaves a great feeling of "deja vu" thing
Review: It could be defined as a nice little book if it was not full of pictures already published. The really nice pictures of Henry Bourne, over a dozen of them, published in "Essence of White" gives the books a great feeling of "deja vu".

The great work of Bourne was originally made for Jane Cumberbatch "Pure Style", published by Ryland Peters & Small in 1996. It looks like a chapter of Cumberbatch master piece, with no originality at all. The text is very "ingenue" and poor, and the art work is also very similar to "Pure Style" one.

Of course "Essence of White" has pictures of others photographers, but it's mainly composed by Bourne's work.

Well, it's not worth and I don't recommend.
