1001 Photographs You Must See Before You Die (2016)

CW: nudity, blood, disfigurement
This is another one of the 1001 X You Must Y Before You Die books. A lot of the photographs in this list are cropped, and some of them aren't of the best quality, so I recommend looking them up yourselves if you can. Also, the book doesn't include any photographs taken after 2016. I don't know if there are any updated editions but I'll remake this list if I find one.
