Description

William Eggleston's Guide is a seminal work in the history of photography, marking the first solo exhibition of color photographs at The Museum of Modern Art, New York. Eggleston's images capture the everyday life of the American South with a vividness and clarity that transformed the perception of color photography as a legitimate art form.
