Description
The fiftieth anniversary edition of a timeless photobook by Joel Meyerowitz.
Cape Light, Joel Meyerowitz’s series of serene and contemplative color photographs taken on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, quickly became one of the most influential and popular photography books in the latter part of the twentieth century at its publication in 1978, breaking new ground both for color photography and for the medium’s acceptance into the art world. Now, nearly fifty years later, Aperture is pleased to reissue this classic photobook.
The book features the now-iconic images of the original edition, newly remastered and printed as never before. In it, everyday scenes—an approaching storm, a local grocery store at dusk, the view through a bedroom window—are transformed by the stunning light of Cape Cod and the luminous vision of the photographer. Meyerowitz is a contemporary master of color photography, and through his eyes small-town life on the Cape is imbued with a powerful and captivating beauty.
