CARRIERI, Mario. Milano, Italia. Milan. C.M. Lerici Editore. 1959.
First edition.Carrieri was a leading photojournalist and cinematographer associated with the Italian neorealists. He was influenced by William Klein's 'Life is Good & Good For You in New York' and shared a similarly raw view, though his layout is slightly more restrained. Carrieri spent time photographing in the suburbs as well as in the centre of Milan, focusing his attention mostly on the less glamorous working side of this hard Italian city. 'One of the most important works of the neo-realist tendency of the 1950s' (Parr). In the same year as Milano, Italia, Klein published his own impressions of Italy in Rome: The City and Its People. [Parr, M. and Badger, G., The Photobook: A History Vol.I, p.214].

4to. pp.[ii] blank, 164. Original black and white pictorial boards. Original pictorial dust-jacket, printed in red and black; with few short closed tears to upper panel, light creasing to lower edges, and short repaired tears to lower panel and spine of dust-jacket. Publisher's slip laid in. 135 black-and-white photographs printed in gravure, design by Giulio Confalonieri, Ilio Negri and Giuseppe Trevisani.
