Alfred Stieglitz. Photographs & Writings. Text by Sarah Greenough and Juan Hamilton. National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. & Callaway Editions, New York, 1983. First edition. Folio. Cloth in photo-illustrated dustjacket.
246 pp.
A mint copy of a sumptuous large volume, published in conjunction with the major Stieglitz exhibition at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. Georgia O'Keeffe acted as a consultant for the exhibition and the book. The seventy-three images chosen as representating the best of Stieglitz's career are printed in tritone collotype. Stieglitz, more than any other twentieth century photographer, is credited with championing photography as an art; many of his own photographs have been recognized as masterpieces of the modern era. Includes a chronology and bibliography.
As new, still in the publisher's shrinkwrap. |
