- catalog abstract ""In Railroad Vision Anne M. Lyden explores the vital connections between photography and the railroads . In her words: "the railroad has been a vehicle for social and political change in modern society, and photography, as a visual medium that defines the physical world, has had an important bearing on how we see ourselves in this society." Together, railroads and photography have produced what Lyden calls "railroad vision": a way of regarding the world - and our place in it - that was made possible by the almost simultaneous development of these two inventions that have shaped so much of modern life." "Railroad Vision contains more than one hundred photographs, including works by Carleton Watkins, Hippolyte-Auguste Collard, Alfred Stieglitz, Walker Evans, Charles Sheeler, O. Winston Link, and William Eggleston. It also contains new information on many of the trains and locomotives depicted that will be of particular interest to railroad enthusiasts."--Jacket.".
