"America - Works from the Great Depression" is a collection of works by Walker Evans, one of the most representative American photographers of the 20th century. In the catalog of the retrospective exhibition of Evans organized by John Szarkowski in 1971, poet Walt Whitman wrote the following comment about Evans's photographs: "I do not doubt that the dignity and beauty of the world is hidden in every little thing in it... I do not doubt that there is much more hidden in common things, insects, ordinary people, slaves, dwarves, weeds, worthless garbage than we have ever suspected..." This is a famous quote that conveys the world that Evans saw. This book is a collection of works published by a Japanese publisher, mainly consisting of works from the 1930s when he took documentary photographs at the request of the FSA (Farm Protection Administration).
