Book excerpt: Eighty-two photographs by an unknown photographer, of unidentified women, taken probably between 1900 and 1915, and originally produced for stereoscope (3-D) viewing. The women were photographed nude, some in a bordello, others outdoors, in a non-pornographic style that evidences considerable rapport between subject and photographer and a naturalness virtually non-existent in European nude photos of the same era. The 1928 massacre of striking banana workers made famous in Garcia Marquez' One hundred years of solitude was recast by the late Cepeda Samudio (1926-1972), a friend of Marquez and member of the legendary Barranquilla Group of Four.
