Probably no photographer in history has enjoyed such a burst of success in the art world. –The New York Times, 1992
The fears and sheltering tenderness that any parent has felt for his or her child were realized with an eidetic clarity –The New York Times, 1992
Photographs seem to represent, for Mann, a counter-reality, an opposition to what is and what was. –The Atlantic
They were simply among the most beautiful photographs I had ever seen. –Sebastian Smee, The Boston Globe
Sally Mann continues to probe the intimate life of her family and come up with startling, disquieting revelations. Mann's extraordinary picture of her nude daughter suspended like a shimmering white fish on a porch with unconcerned adults resonates in your mind like a dream. –Vince Aletti, Village Voice
