Walter Civardi

Walter Civardi was an American photographer who worked primarily in the mid-20th century. He is known for his gelatin silver prints, which often feature portraits and cityscapes, particularly of New York. His work has been exhibited and sold at auctions, with some pieces dating as far back as the 1950s. While not as widely known as some of his contemporaries, his photographs are valued for their classic mid-century aesthetic and historical context, documenting everything from urban life to women working in traditionally male jobs during World War II.
