Photography in America
Robert M. Doty (Editor), Minor White (Writer of introduction), Whitney Museum of American Art (Host institution), Random House (Firm) (Publisher)
"From the greatest American photographic collections, the Whitney Museum of American Art here presents a selection of 259 superb pictures by eighty-six outstanding photographers. They range in time from 1841, when the camera and its potential were just becoming known, to the present day, when photography has gained full recognition as a medium of artistic expression. Yet, most importantly, as the sequence of these fine photographs unfolds, it is evident that Photography in America is more than a brilliant record of photography's aesthetic evolution. It is an extraordinary visual history of a century of American life."-- Jacket flap
