Elliott Erwitt: Photography with humor in his last great coffee table book When great black and white photography and tongue-in-cheek humor come together, as they did with Elliott Erwitt, the result is a unique coffee table book like "Last Laughs". No one was better than the New York photography legend at observing everyday scenes around the world with heart and humor through the lens of his camera.

Whether stars or unknown faces in the streets, whether people or dogs, when the photography legend Erwitt observed the world through the lens of his camera, his sense of humor was always his companion. It is the unmistakable signature of his photography in black and white that turned these tongue-in-cheek glances at the lives of others into impressive documents of contemporary history: a wonderful, sometimes melancholy book of hand-picked photographic moments full of nostalgia and humor.
