New American Nudes Book

This item is identified as a hardcover photography book titled "NEW AMERICAN NUDES". While exact dimensions are not provided, it appears to be a large-format book, suggesting a substantial visual presentation. The book features a black hardcover, providing a stark contrast to the colorful collage-style cover art. The cover design is a composite image, featuring a nude human torso (appearing to be female, from the waist up) positioned against a backdrop of green mountains and what seems to be a light blue sky, overlaid with elements of a grassy field with small white and yellow wildflowers. The torso itself is depicted in natural tones, partially obscured by other photographic elements. The collage effect is emphasized by apparent 'torn' edges of the superimposed images, giving it a somewhat conceptual or avant-garde feel. A notable feature is the prominent title "NEW AMERICAN NUDES" in large white serif capital letters at the bottom of the black cover. A small, illegible signature or marker is visible near the bottom left of the image on the cover, suggesting a potential artist or designer credit, though no specific artist is named on the front cover. The book's style is indicative of photography focused on the human form, with an artistic and potentially conceptual approach, aligning with art and photography trends from the 1970s or 1980s. The overall condition appears to be good to very good, with the cover remaining clean and exhibiting minimal wear along the edges. There is a slight, discernible curl to the top right corner of the cover, but no major tears, stains, or other significant visible damage. There are no visible manufacturing details such as maker's marks or stamps beyond the title. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for a hardcover photography book of its estimated period, with a focus on presenting the visual content.
