"Objects for the Printed Page" is a collection of works by Irving Penn, one of the most representative photographers of the 20th century. Since the 1940s, Irving Penn has been leading the photography world in the United States and even the world, alongside Richard Avedon. In the early days of his career in the fashion world, he was discovered by the famous director Alexei Brodovich, and while Avedon continued to pursue "people" and "portraits," Penn demonstrated his talents in a wide range of fields, including "still life" and "fashion." In particular, his outstanding "still life" works, such as "flowers," "food," "cigarettes," and "tableware," are very popular among Japanese fans. This book is a collection of works published during an exhibition that toured Europe starting in Essen, Germany in 2001, and mainly introduces still life (objects) created for commercial work for Issey Miyake and Clinique, as well as magazine editorials.
