Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning collection of portraits of vegetables, fruits, and flowers by a turn-of-the-twentieth-century visionary In 1981, at Bermondsey Market in London, Sean Sexton, the Irish-born photographic collector, chanced upon the gelatin silver prints of photographer Charles Jones. Dating from the turn of the century, these beguiling studio “portraits” of tulips and sunflowers, onions and turnips, plums and pears are skillfully executed and startling in their originality. Shot as close-ups, with long exposure and spare composition, the works anticipate by decades the later achievements of modernist masters. This volume presents Jones’s photography in sections devoted to vegetables, flowers, and fruit, with captions taken from Jones’s own identifications, written by hand on the back of the prints. Renowned writer and restaurateur Alice Waters describes the simple beauty of the photographs in the preface. Robert Flynn Johnson contextualizes the work in the still life tradition and pieces together the fragmentary evidence about the life of this mysterious figure, who trained as a gardener and worked on a number of private estates, but who left no notes or diaries to explain why he photographed the plants he saw every day. The perfect antidote to appetites jaded by processed foods and late twentieth-century consumerism, the legacy of Charles Jones is a reminder of the bountiful riches of nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Jones is likely to remain for ever a mysterious figure. We know he was born in England in 1866, the son of a master butcher. We know he must have trained as a gardener and was employed on a number of private estates before retiring to Lincolnshire. We shall probably never know why he came so obsessively and so brilliantly to photograph the plants he encountered in everyday life at the turn of the last century. Yet here was an 'outsider' genius, who was saved from obscurity only by the chance discovery of his surviving prints in a London market. His techniques - close-up viewpoint, long exposure and spare composition - anticipate by decades the later achievements of modernist masters. The photographs themselves are Jones' only statement; he left no notes, diaries or writings to explain his reasons for the creation of such a prodigious and concentrated body of work, but beautifully reproduced here, their simple, unvarnished beauty is the perfect antidote to appetites jaded by processed food and 21st-century life.
