Reviews"If Age of Silver was nothing more ambitious than a collection of photographs by John Loengard, it would still be a significant entry into the canon of photographic history. After all, Loengard's long tenure at LIFE magazine, and his unerring eye for capturing images from every corner of the world around him, helped to make him something of a hero. But in fact, Age of Silver …operates on an even grander scale." Société Perrier, "Mr. Loengard's environmental portraits are informed by his respect and affection for these exceptional silversmiths." - The Wall Street Journal "If Age of Silver was nothing more ambitious than a collection of photographs by John Loengard, it would still be a significant entry into the canon of photographic history.

SynopsisA collection of portraits of some of the most important photographers of the last half-century, including Annie Leibovitz, Ansel Adams, Man Ray, Richard Avedon, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Henri Cartier-Bresson and many others. Leongard caught them at home and in the studio; in posed portraits and in candid shots of the artists at work and at rest. Complementing these revealing, expertly composed portraits are elegant photographs of the artists holding their favourite or most revered negatives. This beautifully printed duotone monograph presents a unique, personal vision.
