Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
When William Egglestons second artists book Morals of Visions was first published in 1978 in a limited edition of fifteen, only a handful of lucky people were able to obtain it; it has since become a collectible rarity. That is now to change with this new Steidl edition, which re-imagines Morals of Visions as a trade book for the general public.
The original Morals of Vision contains eight color coupler prints of Egglestons archetypal still lifes, landscapes and portraits which glorify the banal and have since changed the history of color photography. There is no particular reason to search for meaning, Eggleston has said of his work in general, a sentiment in contrast with the title Morals of Vision which suggests that there are indeed principles of a kind to be learnt from the images in this book. Yet the lessons in photos including those of a broom leaning again a wall, green grain silos in the fading light, and an off-center electric candle complete with fake wax, remain Egglestons own ironic secret.
'I dont have a burning desire to go out and document anything. It just happens when it happens. Its not a conscious effort, nor is it a struggle.' -William Eggleston
