A gorgeously printed panorama of the 20th century's defining photographs

Over the course of the 20th century, photography evolved as an art form while serving as an eyewitness to social, cultural and political change. This book presents more than 80 significant images--many from unique vintage prints--that came to define their times, and invites us to take a fresh look at celebrated photographs by such masters of the medium as Berenice Abbott, Margaret Bourke-White, Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Walker Evans, Robert Frank, Consuelo Kanaga, Dorothea Lange, Gordon Parks and Edward Steichen.
