I just got this book
I really like real photographic portraits. One of my favorites is a self portrait of an artist that has since died. It is called "I'm too sad to tell you."
Anyway, portraits of real people that aren't perfect and posed are so cool. "Flattery is unwholesome. It is contrary to truth." The Photographic News London, 1870. Sadly enough, there were no portraits of rats.
I'm a big fan of Bas Jan Ader too.
