After September 2001, photographer Peter Elliott loaded his cameras and some clothes into his car and began a cross-country journey, looking for the American flag. He found it everywhere. Home Front is both a tribute to the profound emotions of the country and a testament to Elliott's eye. His genius in these arresting images is to wed these serendipitous meetings with the flag to a language of light and composition that draws as much from classic landscape photography as it does from urban visual idioms. Authorial inscription reads: "To [previous owner], Best Wishes, Peter Elliott". This is a large form book, available for DOMESTIC SHIPPING ONLY. Clean copy. Record # 33940
