William Eggleston

In April 1979, a book of 15 color photographs by William Eggleston was published in a limited edition of twenty. The photographs were taken from the second chapter of an unpublished larger work entitled "Wedgewood Blue." Alongside his publications "Chromes" (2011), "Los Alamos Revisited" (2012) and the forthcoming "Democratic Forest" (2014) and "Election Eve" (2016), all documenting Eggleston's life work, "At Zenith" constitutes a calm and experimental intermezzo from Eggleston's familiar loudness and intensity of colors. The photographer pointed his camera at the sky to focus on the clouds rolling by.
