About
Considered groundbreaking when first published in 1985, John Gossage’s The Pond remains one of the most important photobooks of the medium. As Gerry Badger, coauthor of The Photobook: A History, Volumes I and II, asserts, “Adams, Shore, Baltz―all the New Topographic photographers made great books, but few are better than The Pond.” Consisting of photographs taken around and away from a pond situated in an unkempt wooded area at the edge of a city, the volume presents a considered foil to Henry Thoreau’s stay at Walden.
