Synopsis

Helen Levitt's photography book offers a compelling glimpse into New York City's street life from the mid-1930s to the late 1940s. It captures diverse urban scenes, from children playing and couples flirting to women gossiping and solitary elderly men. Many of these photographs are previously unpublished, while others have gained iconic status and are integral to photography history. This collection echoes the essence of Levitt's revolutionary 1943 solo exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art. Levitt's work is preserved in prestigious collections such as The Met, MoMA, and The Smithsonian, highlighting her enduring influence.
