Wonderful photographer who has been at the top of his craft for many years. His book
“Some Afrikaaners Photographed” was the book that made get serious about photography. Met him a few times in Cape Town and Joburg in the sixties and seventies. The father of South African photography.

FYI, the Hasselblad Foundation usually publishes a book of the photographers work when they make the award.
These are always relatively cheap and have an excellent interview with the photographer.
