Photo book "2 1/4 (Third Edition)" by William Eggleston, one of America's leading photographers. Eggleston began photography in the 1960s under the influence of Henri Cartier-Bresson. Originally shot in black and white, he switched to color photography in 1966. MoMA's photography department curator John Szarkowski saw the color photographs for the first time, and held a solo exhibition in 1976. As a result, the artistic recognition of color photography has spread, and Eggleston is still a very popular photographer as a leading figure in the photography movement called "New Color". This book is a collection of photographs in the 2 1/4 inch format that he frequently used from 1966 to 1971, when he started taking color photographs. The orange-tinged soft sunlight is impressive, but it is a wonderful book that cuts out American-like scenes such as American cars, billboards, signs, and casual figures, along with the atmosphere of that era. Published in 2003, 3rd edition.
