Taschen is one of our favorite publishers in Germany, no wonder they have one of the best Berlin books out! And this one is probably also the biggest and most heavy Berlin book that I have ever seen. Berlin – Portrait of a City is a massive photographic study about the history of Berlin, edited by Hans Christian Adam. The 700 pages feature amazing photos by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Helmut Newton, René Burri, Robert Capa, Friedrich Seidenstücker, and Wolfgang Tillmans, as well as comments and quotes by Vladimir Nabokov, Marlene Dietrich, Max Schmeling, Willy Brandt, and David Bowie. This book is a must have for every Berlin friend. See more images from the book after the jump.
