Ledgers 1953

"Ledgers" is a 1953 photograph by Walker Evans, depicting a row of bound ledgers with the word "Gratuity Fund" visible on the spines, along with other ledger titles. The ledgers are displayed on a wooden shelf, with a small door and drawers below. The image is a classic example of Evans's documentary style, capturing the details of everyday objects with a sharp focus and minimalist aesthetic.
