BAILEY, David.

Inquire · Offered by Peter Harrington

Delhi Dilemma. First edition, inscribed by the artist on the half-title of vol. I, "For Peter & Pauline, Love, DB, 2012", and signed on the half-title of vol. II. In his introduction, historian William Dalrymple writes, "Bailey observes but never judges; he stalks the streets and catches the instant moment with all the skill and effortless immediacy of a cat's perfect four-paws landing." These two large volumes reproduce Bailey's photographs of Delhi, showcasing his artistic range through intimate portraits, close-ups of objects found on the street, and documents of murals and other original artworks.
