American photographer Donald Blumberg (b. 1935) began his career
making black-and-white photographs of the streets and people of New
York. He first gained national attention and widespread recognition
for his 1965-67 series In Front of Saint Patrick's Cathedral,
published in 1973. In these thought-provoking photographs, Blumberg
innovatively captured worshippers exiting the cavernous threshold
of the famed Roman Catholic cathedral on Fifth Avenue. The figures
often seem to defy scale and perspective, clustered in the corners
of the frame or gathered in blurry crowds. This revised and
expanded edition of Blumberg's pioneering project features a new
sequence that includes previously unpublished images and select
contact sheets from the project, all printed in rich duotones.
