Streets, buildings, waterways and changing light become carefully composed images in which atmosphere matters as much as the identification of a place. The photographs capture the early twentieth-century metropolis at a moment when photography was asserting its possibilities as an art. Seen together, the two collections reveal Coburn's individual vision of urban life and the expressive qualities that photogravure could give to the modern city's familiar forms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216677159251,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421251944787,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/london-new-york-limited-edition-folio-society-2492","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
