Truth in Black-and-White Authenticity, honesty, and character: Donald Graham's portraits are not simply photographic recordings. Looking at them is like looking at human beings themselves, brought forth by the photographer with his virtuoso technique and sensibilities. These brilliant, strongly contrasting black-and-white photos are evidence of attitude, rather than studied gestures.

On paper they seem almost tangible, fully revealing this outstanding oeuvre.
