Camera Eye of LIFE is a 1989 photographic collection by Japanese photographer Jun Miki, published in Japan by Shogakukan. This substantial photo book presents Miki’s black-and-white documentary photography and includes sections devoted to America, New York and Boston, a Ford factory, portraits, artists, fellow photographers, and the relationship between America and Japan during the 1950s.
The photographs capture people, everyday life, travel, industry, and postwar social history, giving the volume strong interest for collectors of Japanese photography, documentary photography, and LIFE-era photojournalism.
The book is primarily in Japanese, with some English headings including “MIKI SEES AMERICA,” “Artists,” and “My Friends, Great Photographers.” Copyright © 1989 by Jun Miki and printed in Japan.
The exterior shows moderate age-related rubbing, light surface wear, edge and corner wear, and minor spotting/soiling. The interior pages shown are clean and well preserved, and the black-and-white photographs remain sharp and attractive. An unusual Japanese photography title with strong visual and historical appeal.
