| Item Description: | Slightly revised new edition. First published in 1985 by Random House, Rich and Poor is a seminal development in the experimental story telling through photography. Goldberg made portraits of individuals from all social classes, after which the subjects wrote their impression of the image on the face of the photographs. The combination of text and image investigates myths about class, power and happiness while revealing an intimate portrayal of the human condition. |
