A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. With 38 duotone photographs and 16 full-color reproductions. Published to accompany an exhibition held at the Mississippi Museum of Art, Jackson, Mississippi from April 6 to June 30, 2002. Summarized upon the dust jacket: "Photographs by Mississippi icon Eudora Welty (1909-2001) capture in pictures the world this beloved author also described with words. The impact of Welty's images and the clarity of her artistic vision have yet to be examined within the context of American art of the 1930s. PASSIONATE OBSERVER: EUDORA WELTY AMONG ARTISTS OF THE THIRTIES places Welty's photographs from the decade alongside visual artwork by her contemporaries from across the country. Here, Eudora Welty is appreciated not just for her prose or her photographs. Rather, the photographs - like the works by painters and sculptors of the period - are understood as visual interpretations of the artist's world. They offer insight into the way Welty saw life around her, how she felt about what she saw, and what she cared about most. Both a compassionate observer of the world and a passionate image maker, Eudora Welty was a visual artist who used the camera much like she used language when working as a writer." {WeltyShelf#2} ISBN 1887422064.
