In 1949, when he returned from four years in a Russian prisoner-of-war camp, Herbert Hoffmann resolved to find the tattooed people he had once known, who had been shining examples to him, and -- in the truest sense of the word -- to 'capture' them. Over three decades the amateur with his Rolleiflex took portrait photographs of almost 400 tattooed people, born between 1878 and 1952. This beautiful book lovingly collects those portraits.
