Walker Evans's 'Penny Picture Display, Savannah' (1936) is a gelatin silver print of the window display of a cheap portrait studio in Savannah, Georgia, covered in a grid of small photographic prints of local patrons. Evans transforms the commercial display into a collective portrait of Depression-era small-town America. A landmark of 20th-century documentary photography, held by the Art Institute of Chicago.
