William Eggleston's Guide, New York: Museum of Modern Art, 1976.Square octavo, first edition, pp. 112, brown pebble-grain leatherette boards with gilt lettering on top and spine, mounted color photo on top. Essay by John Szarkowski. This was the catalog for Eggleston's controversial show at the Museum of Modern Art, which was panned by many critics for its use of color. Considered a breakthrough in photographic art, see Roth pp. 234-5, Parr & Badger v.1 p. 265. They wrote that this show and book 'heralded the birth of colour photography, or more accurately, it marked the moment when it was perceived as artistically respectable.' They add that Szarkowski's essay here is one of his most adroit.Condition of this book: Minor spine slant, age toning at edges. Boards near fine with a few faint areas of rubbing at extremities. Size: Octavo (standard book size). 112. Text body is clean, and free from previous owner annotation, underlining and highlighting. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. All edges clean, neat and free of foxing. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo. Category: Photography; United States; 1970s; Art & Design. ISBN: 087070317X. ISBN/EAN: 9780870703171.

New York: MIT Press for the Museum of Modern Art, Date: 1976. 4to. 110 pp. 48 color photographs and one black-and-white portrait of Eggleston. Original black bonded leather with gilt-stamped spine and cover onlay. A fine copy. FIRST EDITION (no date on the title-page; copyright page dated only 1976). Issued as the companion to Eggleston's seminal 1976 exhibition at MoMA, a landmark in the history of photography. "I once heard William Eggleston say that the nominal subjects of his pictures were no more than a pretext for the making of color photographs-the Degas position. I did not believe him, although I can believe that it might be an advantage to think so, or to pretend to think so. To me it seems that the pictures reproduced here are about the photographer's home, about his place, in both important meanings of that word. One might say about his identity" (John Szarkowski, pp. 5-6). "As pictures ... these seem to me perfect: irreducible surrogates for the experience they pretend to record, visual analogues for the quality of one life, collectively a paradigm of a private view, a view one would have thought ineffable, described here with clarity, fulness, and elegance" (ibid., p. 14).
