William Eggleston is a photographer based in the American South, widely recognized as a trailblazer who elevated color photography to the status of fine art. From the late 1960s, he began using color film—then primarily a commercial medium—to depict the everyday life and landscapes of the southern United States with a vivid and unique vision. In 1976, he held the first solo exhibition of color photographs at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, a landmark event that reshaped the history of photographic expression.
