By Amy Sall. I love this picture book, or should I say photo book? Most of it is reproductions of photographs from the “golden age” of African photography, with profiles of each major photographer, plus a section on cinema as well.
One very good way to find “a picture book for you” is to visit a good museum bookshop, in this case for me it was the Kimball Museum in Fort Worth. Look around at the books with images. Find one that intrigues you, and then buy it, take it home and read and look through it. Do note this might cost 2x a normal book, but on average it is more than 2x better. It will open up whole new worlds. And it is not something your GPT is able to do (yet), though of course you can follow up with queries.
You can order the book here.
