Published by Steidl, Chromes is an edit of more than 5,000 Kodachromes and Ektachromes taken from ten chronologically ordered binders found in a safe in the Eggleston Artistc Trust. “This book presents Eggleston’s early Memphis imagery, his testing of colour and compositional strategies, and the development towards the ‘poetic snapshot’,” the publisher says. “In short, Chromes shows a master in the making.” To be released in December, this set of three clothbound books - priced at £220 / €248 / $345 - showcases 364 colour photographs on a total of 728 pages.
