While Frankfurtborn Ilse Bing's 1931 SelfPortrait with Leica is an icon of modern photography, her exquisite blackandwhite compositions, created mostly during her years in exile in Paris and New York, have not received nearly the attention they deserve. This firstever monograph of the photographer (18991998) dubbed the 'Queen of the Leica' is cause for celebration on two counts: Those with an interest in Bing's work now have an authoritative source to consult; and students of the form now have proof that Bing ranks alongside Brassa, Man Ray, and Henri CartierBresson in the pantheon of 20thcentury avantgarde photography. This book, based largely on unpublished material from Bing's personal archive, combines biography with an indepth study of her work in its historical context, creating a portrait of the artist as revealing as it is overdue.
