风格解读
以下是 FilmAnalysis 编辑对其作品整体的概括,是解读,不是史实记录。
让彩色摄影获得尊重的人。一面红色天花板、一辆三轮车、一台冰柜,全都以染料转印工艺呈现出饱和而奇异精确的色彩。主体从来不是那件东西,而是围绕它的色彩关系。
- 色彩
- 饱和、温暖,两三种色相之间关系精确。
- 构图
- 面无表情,常用低角度或古怪的角度;一件物品得到全部注意。
- 光线
- 南方的日光、荧光灯的室内、黄昏。
- 影调
- 中等反差,干净的高光。
- 质感
- 细颗粒、清晰、像印刷品。
- 情绪
- 平等、诡异、静止。

Books and writings
Photobooks
- William Eggleston's Guide · 1976
Dye-transfer colour of ordinary things under a museum imprint; after the controversy, the founding book of colour photography.
- The Democratic Forest · 1989
The democratic eye, for which anything is worth photographing; 150 colour pictures.
First-edition dates only; reprints, translations and revised editions are on each book's page. What autobiographies and interviews say is the photographer's own account, not independently verified fact.
Style, as we read it
An editorial summary of the body of work by FilmAnalysis: interpretation, not historical record.
The photographer who made colour respectable: a red ceiling, a tricycle, a freezer, all rendered in dye-transfer prints of saturated, oddly exact colour. The subject is never the thing but the colour relationships around it.
- Colour
- Saturated, warm, with precise relationships between two or three hues.
- Composition
- Deadpan, often low or odd angles; one object given full attention.
- Light
- Southern daylight, fluorescent interiors, dusk.
- Tone
- Medium contrast, clean highlights.
- Texture
- Fine-grained, sharp, print-like.
- Mood
- Democratic, uncanny, still.
