Editor’s Notes

We were saddened to learn, in January, of the passing of Christer Strömholm, the extraordinary Swedish photographer. Less well known in the United States than elsewhere in the world, Strömholm’s work presents an astonishing, powerful, sometimes playful vision of the twentieth century. He honored The Kenyon Review by allowing us to use six of his photos on our covers across two volume years. The current example is the last of the first series; the next three will be strikingly different. We wish to honor Christer Strömholm in turn.
