Hovering
over it all is history, evoked in the words scrawled on a
makeshift grave marker: "Gone but not forgotten." The New Yorker For finding poetry in this slow, languorous countryscape, Ms. Clay deserves much credit. The New York Times Delta Land is a subtle and
unforgettable study of the Mississippi Delta. The Oxford American Magazine Quiet, exacting yet astonishingly emotional
photographs of the Mississippi flatscape, with an astute and thoughtful introduction by Lewis Nordan. ELLE Magazine Clay's work resides in that place where personal
reflection informs historical document in perfect combination. Black and White Magazine Delta Land is a photographic project which
involves the recording and
preservation of Mississippi Delta landscape and its rapidly disappearing indigenous structures: mule barns, field churches, cotton gins, commissaries, crossroads stores, tenant houses, cypress sheds, and railroad stations. Although many acclaimed photographers have focused their cameras on the Mississippi Delta, no photographer, until now, has attempted to produce an interpretation of the land itself. The images in this book, the work of Maude Schuyler Clay, are the result of that undertaking. University Press of Mississippi, 1999 © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
