    In the late 1980s, Vishniac wrote “Not in Van World” on several dozen contact sheets, referring to his seminal 1983 publication A Vanished World. Throughout his life, Vishniac’s intention was to publish most of his Eastern European photography in a large, sumptuously illustrated photography book. These efforts culminated in the A Vanished World.
