Smedley Street

Famous quotes containing the words smedley and/or street:

    There’s something dreadfully decisive about a beheading.
    —Anne Smedley (c. 1894–1950)

    The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.
    Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
