Purcell is a leading American photographer whose strangely beautiful, often unsettling images of objects from the natural and man-made world have earned her international acclaim. Her numerous books include A Glorious Enterprise: The Museum of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. Her work has been exhibited at many major museums throughout the United States and Europe, and is in the permanent collections of the Museum of Fine Arts (Boston), the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the National Academy of Science, and the Victoria and Albert in London. (For those Academy lovers and Purcell collectors: This is the first time the cover image from A Glorious Enterprise, seen above, will available for sale). |
