abstract: "From 1906 to 1934, Eugene de Salignac shot over twenty thousand 8-by-10-inch glass-plate negatives of New York City. As the sole photographer at the municipal Department of Bridges/Plant and Structures during that period of unprecedented change, he documented the creation of the city's infrastructure - bridges, major buildings, roads, and subways. His lyrical images capture the exuberant growth that made New York the metropolitan capital it is today. For years these photographs have been used as illustrations in books and films, but never credited to de Salignac. New York Rises is the first monograph to present them as an aesthetically coherent oeuvre by a photographer with a unique vision."--BOOK JACKET.
