A Southern Verse - Hardcover

by Peter C. Stitt (Photographer)

The rural south is a region in which every part of the past is very much its present. Peter Stitt's collection of photographs are an expressive study of a landscape that can be, at times, both particularly straightforward and subtly peculiar. Each image is a contemporary representation of a memory, a feeling, or a meditation on the small towns of the rural South.--Peter Stitt "Peter Stitt"
