Het is maar goed dat Martin Parr zijn Winogrand-foto's kocht toen ze nog betaalbaar waren, want foto's zoals onderstaande uit de serie Women are beautiful moeten binnenkort bij het veilinghuis Christie's samen zo'n 30.000 tot 40.000 dollar opleveren.
Het gaat om dezelfde serie als die in het bezit van Parr is, gesigneerd in een oplage van 80 verschenen.
In the introduction to the Women are Beautiful portfolio Winogrand writes, "Whenever I've seen an attractive woman, I've done my best to photograph her". Winogrand assembled the Women are Beautiful portfolio from his many years as a street photographer, and so it comes as no surprise to find that nearly all the images were taken in public spaces. What becomes readily apparent are the women's varied reactions to the camera, and by extension, to Winogrand.
