The images in Cape Light have been newly remastered and printed, and remind us of Meyerowitz’s uncanny ability to capture epiphanies amid the beaches, diners and streets of Cape Cod. – Royal Photographic Society Journal
The publishing of Cape Light decades ago was an inspiration, a revelation of refined color and simplicity at a time when black and white was considered the standard for serious photography. Although the incongruence of a large format view camera and seizing fast moving life in Provincetown was an anomaly—and daring—it also revealed the marvelously nuanced color captured at the Cape. Joel Meyerowitz succeeded best in the way that he recorded porches at dusk, long stretches of beach with an approaching storm, and quiet portraits. –New York Journal of Books
Thirty-five years ago, these photographs broke new ground in how film in an 8” x 10” view camera could reproduce the colors and intensity of light, making color photography more accepted in the art world. –Travel and Leisure
Meyerowitz’s photographs are acclaimed for their use of color and their appreciation of light, which transform everyday scenes of homes, beaches, and streets into something otherworldly. –Slate
More than 35 years since its first publication, Cape Light doesn’t look like a time capsule of a bygone place but rather an enduring distillation of its timeless spirit. –Slate
