William Eggleston- Alexandra

William Eggleston is a renowned American photographer, born in the late 1930s.His early work was inspired by Swiss photographer Robert Frank and French photographer Henri- Cartier Bresson. In the mid sixties Eggleston began to experiment with color photography. Eggleston’s colored work was featured in the MOMA . His exhibit was a defining moment in his career as it was noted as "the acceptance of color photography by the highest validating institution" (Mark Holborn). By the end of the decade Eggleston had started creating primarily color photographs. The photo below is one of my favorites by William Eggleston:
