Evans was the first British photographer whose work Alfred Stieglitz published in Camera Work, his influential journal of photography. "Mr. Evans has set a standard in photography that most of us find entirely impossible to live up to. He is a gentleman who has dedicated himself to an art which is disparaged by those who believe that when a lens is in a box it is mechanical, but not when it is in a man's head." /George Bernard Shaw/
