LAST LAUGHS ELLIOTT ERWITT
“Besides jolting the brain in the snappiest possible way, every photograph in Erwitt’s Last Laughs makes you glad to be alive.”
MATT GROENING , CREATOR OF THE SIMPSONS
“Often the best visual jokes require no caption, as these wildly witty photos prove. Erwitt, with his ultra-keen eye for the poignantly absurd, belongs in the pantheon of observational comics.”
EMMA ALLEN , CARTOON EDITOR OF THE NEW YORKER
“‘Every picture tells a story’ should be modified for Elliott Erwitt’s work to read: ‘Every picture tells a funny, quirky, moving or eternal story.’ This book is a gem.”
MITCH ALBOM , AUTHOR OF TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE
“Erwitt’s photos in Last Laughs are a testament to his unerring eye for composition and his razor-sharp timing in capturing the decisive moment. Each image draws you in with its visual wit, then reveals new layers of meaning the longer you look. Few artists have enabled us to observe humanity with such clarity, humor and compassion.”
