"Manhattan skyscrapers rise from the fog and steam. Geometry and light, steel and clouds. Stieglitz photographed the city like no one else."

Context of the work

Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946) is the founding figure of photography as a major art form in the United States. His New York gallery 291 was the first space to exhibit Picasso, Matisse, and Rodin in America. He was also the husband and portraitist of painter Georgia O'Keeffe.

The series New York from the Shelton, created from the upper floors of the Shelton Hotel where he lived with O'Keeffe starting in 1925, treats skyscrapers not as monuments to be documented, but as pure forms.

Why is Alfred Stieglitz a foundational figure in photography?

Stieglitz (1864-1946) spent his life working to have photography recognized as equal to painting. His gallery 291 was the first to exhibit Picasso, Matisse, and Rodin in America – he was also the husband and portraitist of Georgia O'Keeffe.

Beautiful images deserve beautiful paper

The paper is an uncoated matte 170 gsm. Its surface stays slightly fibrous, the ink sinks in, the light spreads across it. Colors keep their depth, as on the page of a book.

It is FSC certified, so it comes from sustainably managed forests, and printed as close to you as possible to shorten transport.

Hanging a piece is not the same as seeing it once. It stays there, you find it again in passing, and the day pauses for a second. It is a moment you give yourself, and offer to those who live with you.
