Description

A landmark photography book, presenting the never-before-seen original vintage prints of this enigmatic and eccentric portrait photographer, whose prized and rare images are collected by museums and galleries around the world. Disfarmer's studio portraits present the people of the American heartland during the turbulent and troubled times of the early 20th century. The culmination of a two-year historical reclamation project in which researchers scoured thousands of albums, Disfarmer is a truly unique, original and important collection.
