Immediate Family

Sally Mann (1951)

Synopsis

"Immediate Family" by Sally Mann is a seminal photography book set in the woodland backdrop of Virginia, capturing intimate portraits of Mann’s children. First published in 1992, these photographs explore themes of childhood dependence and autonomy, echoing the complexities of Greek drama through emotions like impatience, terror, and self-discovery. The book is celebrated for its portrayal of vulnerability and role-playing, achieving a universal resonance despite its personal subject matter. This edition uses new scans of the original prints, taken with a large format camera, providing a fresh and sumptuous representation true to its initial release.
