Background information, content
The huge portrait photo volume 'Menschenbilder' by Michael HOROWITZ, which has been out of print for a long time, is a voluminous photo book with pictures that tell stories. From 1966 to 1986, the Austrian photographer, writer and publisher succeeded in coaxing a wide variety of people out of their shells as well as letting them spill their greatest secrets. The result was a series of pictures featuring personalities ranging from Thomas Bernhard and Elias Canetti, Helmut Qualtinger and Oskar Werner to Karl Böhm and Herbert von Karajan, Klaus Maria Brandauer and Paula Wessely, and John Lennon, Sir Peter Ustinov and Andy WARHOL.
