Catalog published in conjuction with the 1993 exhibition of the same name which was exhibited at the Museum of the City of New York. PROFUSELY ILLUSTRATED in black-and-white photography and prints with accompanying descriptive captions. From the Preface: "Images of the urban landscape in photographs and prints resonate between historical documentation and artistic expression. "Shared Perspectives: The Printmaker and Photographer in New York, 1900-1950," presents this aesthetic reverberation as it emerged during the burgeoning of New York City as the paragon of modern urbanism in the first half of the twentieth century. Drawing on two significant resources, the print collection of Reba and Dave Williams and the photographic holdings of the Museum of the City of New York, the exhibition reveals how artists working in two different mediums captured their vision of the City as it burst forth from the nineteenth-century."Published on the occasion of an exhibition held at the Museum of the City of New York, Apr. 21-Sept. 19, 1993.
