Jerry Thompson explores the many-leveled relationship between seeing and thinking. Truth and Photography reproduces in duotone twenty-three photographs - some as well known as any the medium has produced, some more obscure, and some never before published. Mr. Thompson uses them to illustrate his observations about pictures and picture-taking occasions. He is concerned not strictly with history or theory. He does not rely exclusively on his thirty-year experience as a working photographer, nor are his essays confined to the medium of photography. Rather, Mr. Thompson employs multiple perspectives, usually in the same essay and often on a single picture. His examinations are penetrating, sustained, allusive, and frequently thrilling. They represent not settled explanations but living thought.
