Wolfgang Sievers
by Helen Ennis
National Library of Australia, $49.95 pb, 196 pp, 9780642276933

 

Wolfgang Sievers was a complex person with a clear vision. The major dimensions of his life included photography and an abiding sense of the dignity of man. Helen Ennis, one of the foremost authorities on Sievers, has produced a book that is at once satisfying and teasing.
