Publisher/Self-Published（私家版）

Google翻訳
A collection of works by Japanese photographer Toshishi Nakasa, "Anchor on the Island of Time." Details about Nakasa are unknown, but he seems to have been based in Tokyo, and this work was self-published in 1973. In the early 1970s, Camera Mainichi's popularity had died down compared to the 1960s, and Daido Moriyama and others were actively focusing on creating "photo books," so it was a time when off-magazines and self-publishing became more common. The images included in this book are basically taken overseas (mostly Europe and the United States?), but they are influenced by the prints of Gravure Seikosha, and although they are mostly snapshots, they are rich in monochrome contrast and gradation, and there is a series of poetic images. It is a book that is very much like the 1970s.
