William Eggleston the Hasselblad Award 1998, a collection of photographs by William Eggleston, a pioneer of new color photography in the United States. It is no exaggeration to say that the 1st photobook "William Eggleston's Guide", the first edition of which was published in 1976, was the first photobook to recognize color photography as an art. Henri Cartier-Under the influence of Bresson and Walker Evans, Eggleston began to become a full-fledged photographer, working on color photography earlier than in the 1960s in the midst of the mainstream monochrome era. Originally from Mississippi, southern United States, Eggleston pictorially portrays the mundane landscape of the region and edits the disappearing original landscape and history of America like a private story, with the unmistakable "America". It was projected. This book is a collection of works published after receiving the Hasselblad International Photo Award in 1998. In recent years, many works with narrowed-down concepts have been published by Steidl and others, but it is a wonderful book to enjoy the total world view of Eggleston's early to mid-term.
