The Whitney Museum of American Art announced that New York collectors Sondra Gilman Gonzalez-Falla and Celso Gonzalez-Falla have promised the institution 75 iconic photographs from their collection. The generous gift will dramatically impact the museum’s photography holdings. Adam D. Weinberg, the Alice Pratt Brown Director of the Whitney, said, “The works are classics of twentieth-century photography that enable us to tell the story of twentieth-century American art.”

Among the works are twelve photographs by Walker Evans, including “Kitchen Wall, Alabama Farmstead,” which was published in Evans’ and James Agee’s seminal book on tenant farm families, “Let Us Now Praise Famous Men.”
