Barbie Millicent Roberts: an Original - David Levinthal - 1st Edition, 1998
About the Item
First Edition, published by Pantheon Books, New York, 1998.
Known for his playful, provocative use of toys and figurines shot in close-up, recreating the myths, preoccupations and visual history of American pop culture, David Levinthal is the perfect choice to photograph this light-hearted and stylish photobook of the various fashion looks of the iconic Barbie doll. Taken ‘on the eve of her fortieth birthday’, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the doll’s release, Barbie is clothed in the doll’s rare original ensembles inspired by the great couturiers - Chanel, Givenchy, Dior, Balenciaga - shot colourfully in the style of classic fashion photography, this is Barbie as she was meant to be seen and celebrated.
Hardback in publisher’s original dust jacket, text in English, around 90 pages, heavily illustrated in colour throughout.

He is credited with a map of Poland...Category
