Chiro, my love
Chiro, My Love. Photographs by Nobuyoshi Araki. Heibonsha, Tokyo, 1990. Unpaged. The Japanese inscription, signed with his characteristic ‘A’, ties the book in a very moving way to Sentimental Journey/Winter Journey: ‘Yoko was very much looking forward to this book; its a pity she couldnt live to see it.’ Octavo. Hardbound. Photo-illustrated boards. Numerous black-and-white illustrations.
Chiro relaxing, Chiro romping, Chiro hamming it up, Chiro in the nude (Oh la la!!)…this delightful book is devoted entirely to images of Araki’s beloved cat. Poignant in retrospect as it includes a number of photos of Chiro with Yoko, who did not live to see the book.
Near Fine; some wear and a bit of soiling to boards especially at extremities.
