A collection of works by Walker Evans (1903-1975), one of the most representative photographers of the 20th century. When talking about postwar American photography, and even 20th century photography, the first thing that comes to mind is Robert Frank's "The Americans." It's a masterpiece that many people, even those who aren't photography enthusiasts, have seen, but before Robert Frank, Walker Evans was the leader from before the war. His eyes for the subject, the era, the people, the landscape... His expressions are unwaveringly straightforward and beautiful. This book is a catalog of works published on the occasion of a major retrospective held at MoMA in 1971, and is a collection of works in chronological order, featuring images taken between 1929 and 1970. The preface is by John Szarkowski, MoMA's famous photography director and one of the key figures who made 20th century American photographers known to the world. Hardcover edition. Second printing.
