"All about Saul Leiter (Second Printing)" is a photobook of American photographer Saul Leiter. In the late 1940s, Leiter went to New York to study painting, but was inspired by exhibitions such as the Henri Cartier-Bresson exhibition at MoMA and decided to pursue a career as a photographer. In the 1950s, he was active as a fashion photographer for Harper's Bazaar and Vogue, but with the decline of fashion magazines and the changing trends, he gradually faded into obscurity, becoming a solitary photographer living far removed from the spotlight. However, since 2000, his popularity has been rekindled with exhibitions in the United States and the publication of photobooks by Steidl, and a documentary film about him has also been released. This book is a catalog photobook published in conjunction with his first retrospective exhibition in Japan, and it is a massive volume of over 300 pages.
