dj. First Edition. Slim octavo (21.5cm.); original plain card wrappers in photo-illustrated dust jacket; 47pp.; chiefly photographic illus. throughout. Inscribed and signed on title page: "For George / Best / Lotte / December 1982." Offered together with two original photographic portraits, by Jacobi, of Albert Einstein. Each an original silver-gelatin print (printed later); 14cm x 9cm (image areas slightly smaller); each captioned in ink "Prof. Albert Einstein" and signed at lower right by Jacobi. Each print with a brief autograph note on verso, dated December, 1982; to George Wald. Jacobi was among the greatest portraitists of the Twentieth Century, and Albert Einstein was arguably her most famous subject - Jacobi's 1938 portrait of Einstein in his Princeton study is certainly among the truly iconic photographic portraits of its time, and probably the best-known image of Einstein in popular culture. The two photographs inclulded here appear to have been shot on the same day, ca. 1938, as Einstein is sporting the same deeply unbuttoned white polo shirt. The first image shows Einstein standing in a small sailboat, just the arm and nose of a female companion visible to the left of him. The second image is a close-up portrait of Einstein in white sunhat and pipe. Both portraits were included in Jacobi's limited-edition portfolio of Einstein photographs, issued in 1979 in commemoration of his hundredth birthday. Book inscription and both postcards addressed to George Wald, who received the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1967 for his work with pigments in the retina and advancements made in the study of vision.
