Edward Engel
Edward collects found imagery from 1888 to the 21st century, with the majority of his photographs being family snapshots, and representations of roadside America. Ed states: “I tend to gravitate toward photos that hold some mystery, or images that have a degree of humor or lyricism -especially, where those two dovetail. I find photos in various places – through photo dealers and fellow collectors, in flea markets and antique stores, at estate sales and auctions, and on eBay. Sometimes, I may dig through a box of 1,000 photos and only find one or two I’m tepidly interested in.” Visit Ed’s Archives.
