Sobre este artículo
Boston and Cambridge, Houghton Mifflin Co. and The Riverside Press, 1966. . First edition; small 4to (215 x 174 mm, 8½ x 6¾ in); black and white photographs printed in halftone, foxing to preliminary pages and edges; black cloth-covered boards, spine and upper side stamped in white, black-and-white photo-illustrated dust-jacket, text in grey and white, worn and price-clipped, errata slip tipped in; [xiv], 178pp.
Walker Evans produced this remarkable series of clandestine portraits of passengers on the New York City subway between 1938 and 1941. He caught his subjects off guard by strapping a 35mm Contax camera to his chest, with the lens protruding out between two buttons of his overcoat. He operated the shutter with a cable running down the length of his sleeve. He was initially accompanied by fellow photographer Helen Levitt, who acted as both companion and distractor when the need arose.
Regards sur un siècle de photographie à travers Le Livre 136; The Book of 101 Books: Seminal Photographic Books of the Twentieth Century pp180-1; The Photobook: A History I, p253; The Open Book pp218-9; 802 photo books from the Auer Collection p456.
