A striking and scarce signed first edition of Skin & Bone: Africa by celebrated South African photographer Dook (A. Clunies-Ross). Published in Johannesburg in 1997, this large-format photographic work presents a dramatic series of black-and-white studies created over four years in Botswana, Namibia and the Makgadikgadi Pans.
The book contains 92 powerful full-page photographs exploring the relationship between the human form and African animal remains, producing a distinctive and unforgettable visual aesthetic. Beautifully designed by Dani Malan and handbound for Dook, the volume is printed on heavy stock and bound in original brown cloth boards with the iconic inset photographic illustration to the front cover.
Skin & Bone: Africa has been signed by Dook on the front blank page. The book remains in very good condition overall, with only a light scratch across the inset cover photograph and no other notable defects. A desirable collectible for enthusiasts of South African photography, African art, fine art nude photography and signed photographic books.
Condition – Very Good.
Signed by the photographer. Original brown cloth boards. Minor scratch across the inset photograph on the front cover. No other defects noted internally or externally.
