"A Winter Sky—Central Park" is a photogravure by Alfred Stieglitz, a prominent figure in the Photo-Secession movement. Taken sometime between 1894 and 1897, the photograph depicts a snowy Central Park landscape. Stieglitz's mastery of the medium is evident in the detail of the bare trees and the soft, hazy atmosphere. The composition emphasizes the starkness of the winter scene, highlighting the lone figure in the foreground, adding a sense of solitude to the landscape. This image is a testament to Stieglitz's dedication to elevating photography to the level of fine art.
