Portrait of Desert Modernist architect, Hugh Kaptur, from photographer James Schnepf.  Photograph is featured in Schnepf's stunning photography book, Palm Springs Modern Living (2015, Gibbs Smith), for which William Krisel generously provided the Forward. 

Schnepf will send directly to you a signed 8.5" x 11" Inkjet Print, unframed,  on Archival Paper, along with a signed copy of his book. 

About the book and the photography:  Palm Springs is as much a showcase for its unparalleled collection of Midcentury Modern architecture as it is for the unique people that designed and inhabit that architecture.

With Palm Springs Modern Living, photographer James Schnepf has created a wonderful collection of photographs that document both the iconic architecture and fascinating people of this desert oasis.

More than fifty modernists, artists, builders, and architects were interviewed, including such Midcentury Modern luminaries as Donald Wexler, William Krisel, and Hugh Kaptur, and their stories and anecdotes provide a perfect complement to Schnepf’s vivid photography.

Together, they manage to bring Palm Springs to life in a way that most volumes of architectural photos could never hope to achieve.
