#FaceOnCover #MayMontage I had a mini version of this coffee table book in the 90s, and flipped through the portraits until the binding disintegrated. Like most people at the time, I was captivated by “Afghan Girl” and her striking green eyes, but even more than the 1984 National Geographic cover shot which was used for the cover of this Phaidon collection (left) I remember the controversy surrounding the photo in the 90s.👇🏼

with the power of words.

Happy birthday Jim Henson, on what would‘ve been your 86th birthday! Thank you for making this world a better place!
Quote from the beginning of this book:
“When I was young, my ambition was to be one of the people who makes a difference in this world. My hope still is to leave this world a little better for my being here.“ - Jim Henson
More love for this wonderful book. It was challenged in 2015 for containing images of poverty & for downplaying American Exceptionalism.
