Giacometti, a close personal friend of Ernst Scheidegger since the 1940s, has been subject of many books published by Verlag Ernst Scheidegger and later Verlag Scheidegger &amp; Spiess over the past fifty years.  The most successful one has been <i>Traces of a Friendship &#8211; Alberto Giacometti,<\/i> first published in German in 1990 and in English in 2001. To mark the 50th anniversary of Verlag Ernst Scheidegger \/ Verlag Scheidegger &amp; Spiess this very intimate view of Alberto Giacometti and his work has been completely revised and expanded. The new edition <b><i>Alberto Giacometti: Traces of a Friendship<\/i><\/b> also features for the first time around forty previously unpublished colour images, which have recently been discovered in Ernst Scheidegger&#8217;s archive. Besides of the more accurate dating of some photographs the essays and captions have been revised and amended as well.
