Grad Research: MA student Ashlyn Davis' work featured on LightBox blog

We are thrilled to draw your attention to Time magazine's LightBox blog, which recently featured MA student Ashlyn Davis' collaborative artist book project, Islands of the Blest, which brings together historic photographs of the American west that Davis and photographer Bryan Schutmaat sourced from the online archives of the Library of Congress and the United States Geological Survey.The following is a description of the book from the publisher's website:

These photographs depict various places in the American West, and were taken over a one hundred-year period, from the 1870s through the 1970s. The photographers represented range from the completely unknown to some of America’s most distinguished practitioners of the medium. All of the images were sourced from digital public archives.
