Women in Trees - A Unique Collection of Nostalgic Photography
Discover one of the most extraordinary photo series created by collector and photo editor Jochen Raiß (1969-2022) with Women in Trees. This special collection includes 52 black-and-white photographs from the 1920s to the 1950s, featuring women climbing trees, striking poses, or presenting themselves with grace and style in unusual situations. These timeless images captivate with their enduring charm and invite viewers to create their own interpretations.
The story behind this series began with a chance discovery at a flea market, which inspired Jochen Raiß to pursue this remarkable photographic theme for decades. Each image invites you to pause and imagine the stories behind the moments captured: What motivated women to climb into treetops in elegant outfits and often in high heels?
This edition brings together the highlights from the two successful, now out-of-print previous editions - complemented by a foreword by Jochen Raiß himself and an afterword by the renowned author Johanna Adorján. The bilingual edition (German/English) is compact in format, making it an ideal gift for lovers of vintage photography, nostalgic art, and unique photo books.
- A piece of photographic history: Nostalgic images from the mid-20th century.
- Perfect as a gift for art lovers and fans of exceptional photography.
- A new, carefully curated compilation of the already out-of-print previous editions.
