Title: Reynaldo Luza
Description: Never before published photographs by Reyaldo Luza, property of his nephew Carlos Garcia Montero Luza. "The discovery of Reynado Luza as a photographer is a revolutionary twist in the history of Peruvian art, because, for the first time, we find a national author who portrays, majestically, the dawn of the 20th century from the lens of the artistic vanguards and the Belle Époque. This book brings together about 200 snapshots of this artist recognized in the cpaitals of world culture, such as New York, London and Paris, for having left his mark of sophistication in the field of lifestyle records and the cosmopolitanism of these cities through visual production for magazines such as Vogue and Harpers Bazaar. This is a book of large format images with sequences of the world's largest cities with portraits that created a canon for elegance and the use of lights and geometries, as well as poetic journals of journeys on transatlantic ships, on the beaches of Marbella or Ibiza in Spain"--Verso cover.
